                    in the house of representatives

                      Tuesday, September 13, 2005

  Mr. BRADY of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Thomas 
Jefferson University and Thomas Jefferson University Hospital on the 
occasion of its Annual Awards Gala. Jefferson hospital has provided the 
best in health care services to countless citizens of the Commonwealth 
of Pennsylvania.
  The university and hospital have improved the lives of people in our 
region and across the nation through their research and educational 
programs. I applaud this remarkable institution as it leads the way to 
better lives in the 21st century.
  It's hard to think of Jefferson without being reminded of the 
extraordinary contributions of two people who will be honored at the 
Gala this year: Dorrance H. Hamilton, who will receive the Award of 
Merit, and Dr. Francis E. Rosato who will receive the Achievement Award 
in Medicine. I give them my congratulations and my very best wishes. 
They and Jefferson are to be commended for a job well done, and for 
providing inspiration to all of us. I ask that you and my other 
distinguished colleagues rise to congratulate these exceptional 
individuals.
