                       Wednesday, March 29, 2006

  Ms. CORRINE BROWN of Florida. Mr. Speaker, on behalf of Congressional 
District Three, the Central Florida community, and the City of Apopka, 
it is my sincere pleasure to congratulate Ella J. Gilmore for this 
historic street name designation.
  Your numerous noteworthy accomplishments and leadership in the 
Central Florida community includes work in the early 1970's in 
obtaining street paving and lighting for West 14th Street residents. 
You coordinated and provided leadership for the Orange County's South 
Apopka Targeted Initiative Pilot Project in 1991, which included 
community improvement projects, street lighting and paving, public 
facilities and youth programs in the South Apopka community.
  It has often been said, ``To whom much is given, much is required.'' 
This statement is exhibited by the work you have done and continues to 
be done in your position as Deputy Director of the Orange County Health 
and Family Services Department.
  Continue to let your light shine as God directs your path in your 
mission to impact this and other Central Florida communities. Your 
unending involvement helps to improve the quality of many, many 
individual lives. Your community involvement will never go unnoticed.
  Again, I say ``Congratulations.'' It is an honor to say you are truly 
a ``Phenomenal Woman.''
