                   TRIBUTE TO TG MISSOURI CORPORATION

                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. JO ANN EMERSON

                              of missouri

                    in the house of representatives

                        Monday, October 22, 2007

  Mrs. EMERSON. Madam Speaker, I rise today to congratulate TG Missouri 
Corporation in Perryville, Missouri on its 20th anniversary. This is a 
true milestone for a company which will continue to have a positive 
impact for many years to come.
  Business operations such as TG Missouri's represent the cornerstone 
of Southern Missouri's rural economy. In 20 short years, TG Missouri 
has created significant opportunities by remaining committed to the 
best interests of the community, its customers and its employees. 
Perhaps most important, TG Missouri has provided job opportunities to 
roughly 1200 highly skilled and very dedicated workers, beginning as a 
company of just 35 people in 1987.
  TG Missouri understands that its strengths come from its workforce. 
They have achieved success by relying on the unique skills of each 
individual who is associated with the company. I know that their 
success has been closely observed by others, and TG Missouri will serve 
as an example of responsible and quality business practices for years 
to come.
  Madam Speaker, it is a great privilege to honor TG Missouri on 20 
years of success. I am proud to express my congratulations today in the 
U.S. House of Representatives on TG Missouri's momentous anniversary 
and to wish them many more years of success.

                          ____________________
