                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, March 5, 2008

  Mrs. BLACKBURN. Madam Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me today 
in recognizing Mrs. Margaret ``Midge'' Weinberg for her public service 
to the Germantown community.
  Since joining the Maternal League in 1986, Mrs. Weinberg has been 
greatly involved with caring for young mothers and their babies by 
making it her mission to help teenage mothers learn effective parenting 
skills through the Maternal League's successful Sunshine program. 
Serving as corresponding secretary, historian and parliamentarian, 
Midge has been indispensable to the efforts of the League and has 
proven time and time again her ability to avert any crisis with her 
quick thinking and calm presence.
  When she's not dedicating her time to the Maternal League you can 
often find Mrs. Weinberg serving as co-chair of ``This Side Up,'' 
teaching safe sleeping practices to caregivers of newborns, as well as 
serving on the boards of Bethany Home, The Parenting Center and 
LeBonheur Club.
  In culmination of all her community efforts, Margaret Weinberg has 
been recognized by the Germantown Lions Club as their Citizen of the 
Year for 2007. Her experience and leadership make her an invaluable 
member of the Germantown community and a shining example for others to 
follow.
  Please join me in honoring Margaret Weinberg and wishing her the best 
on this well-deserved award.
