                        Thursday, June 21, 2007

  Mr. BOEHNER. Madam Speaker, I rise to recognize the retirement of 
Fred Worth, a History and Government teacher at Miami East High School 
in Miami County, Ohio, and to express my appreciation for his 
dedication and commitment to the youth of our Nation.
  For the last 30 years, Fred has contributed his time and his talents 
to the betterment of so many young adults and for this I offer him my 
utmost congratulations and thanks. Whether it is coaching baseball, 
volunteering at St. Patrick's Church or teaching in the classroom, his 
students and players exhibit the best of our younger generations. I 
know many of Fred's former students and players have blossomed into 
wonderful adults and he's played a big part in shaping their character.
  I'm proud to call Fred my friend and for that I express my most 
sincere gratitude. His leadership will be missed, but the footprint he 
leaves will inspire many to dream big, reach high and achieve great 
things.
  I consider it an honor to represent Fred in Congress and I wish him 
and his wife Janet a long, happy and healthy retirement.
