  Mr. MACK. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor Nancy Keefer, Bonita 
Springs 2007 Citizen of the Year, for her years of dedicated service to 
southwest Florida. Nancy exemplifies the ideals that we in southwest 
Florida hold dear.
  Over the last decade, Nancy's energy and dedication for Bonita 
Springs has led to great service and leadership in our community. In 
addition to serving as the president of the Bonita Springs Chamber of 
Commerce since 1997, she is a member of the Bonita Springs Rotary Club, 
on the Bonita Springs YMCA board of directors and is a member of the 
International College President's Council. Nancy is also a member of 
the Southwest Florida Transportation Initiative.
  We all owe a tremendous amount of appreciation to Nancy for showing 
our community what leadership and service truly means.
  I'm honored to represent such a remarkable individual, and I would 
like to thank citizens like her for making southwest Florida a great 
place to live, work and visit.
