              TRIBUTE TO ENRIQUE TORREZ AND ANGIE PATRUNO

                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. EDOLPHUS TOWNS

                              of new york

                    in the house of representatives

                      Tuesday, September 30, 2003

  Mr. TOWNS. Mr. Speaker, today I rise to recognize the wonderful union 
of two families. On Saturday, September 20, 2003, Enrique Torrez, Jr. 
and Angie Patruno were married at All Saints Church in Brooklyn, New 
York. Enrique, who is from the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn, 
and Angie, who is from the Ozone Park neighborhood of Queens, first met 
in junior high school and have been dating ever since.
  The groom's parents, Aura Ordonez and Enrique Torrez Sr., and the 
bride's parents, Reverend Molly Golden and Dominic Patruno, have given 
their full blessing to this joyous event.
  Angie has been very active in a wide range of civic issues in her 
community for about ten years. She currently works for the New York 
City Department of Education. Enrique is also a public servant, working 
for the New York State Department of Corrections.
  Mr. Speaker, for more than a decade, this couple has already shown a 
deep commitment to each other, which I am confident will last a 
lifetime. As such, they are worthy of receiving our recognition today.
