  Mr. PORTER. Mr. Speaker, I stand today to honor Margaret Parker 
Fretwell. Mrs. Fretwell just recently celebrated her ninetieth birthday 
and it is my great pleasure to note that she is still working hard to 
better her community. Through her enjoyment of community service and a 
love for her family, Margaret Fretwell has made sure that her ninety 
years here on this earth have been spent in the service of others.
  As an active member in her family, church, and community, she has 
become a symbol of service and charity. Those around her have been able 
to rely on her hard work and giving nature to promote charitable 
programs and educational events that benefit everyone in her hometown 
of Anderson, South Carolina.
  Mr. Speaker, it is my great privilege to stand here and honor 
Margaret Fretwell with my deepest thanks for her continued service and 
contributions to her local community. It is my hope that those that 
have been touched by her generosity will remember her example and use 
it in their own lives.
