educational, physical and social well being of the children of Asbury 
Park. Through his work in the community, Mr. Williams has encouraged 
the youth of Asbury Park to strive for excellence and become our future

  Mr. Speaker, through his tireless efforts, Carl Williams has fostered 
a sense of community and strived to help those less fortunate than
