                     CONGRATULATING SANDRA PEEBLES

  (Ms. ROS-LEHTINEN asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. ROS-LEHTINEN. Mr. Speaker, I am proud to congratulate Sandra 
Peebles, a constituent of my congressional district, for her support of 
the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society in its fight to find a cure for these 
deadly diseases.
  Susan became involved with the society's team and training with the 
goal of completing a 13-mile marathon by September 1.
  Leukemia is the number one killer of children under the age of 15; 
and with the commitment of individuals like Susan, however, the cure 
for lymphoma and leukemia will one day become a reality.
  Susan gets donations from concerned citizens as she runs her marathon 
on behalf of the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.
  I am proud to know generous and concerned individuals like Susan 
Peebles who give up their time for such a worthy cause. I ask my 
congressional colleagues to join me in congratulating Susan Peebles and 
the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.
