  Mr. AKIN. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor Roshara ``Rosie'' J. 
Holub, president and chief executive officer of the Missouri Credit 
Union Association, the service and support association for Missouri's 
153 credit unions and their more than 1.3 million members. After 
decades of service to credit unions and their members, Rosie will be 
retiring on December 17th of this year.
  Rosie has an extensive and impressive resume of professional 
accomplishments. She served as Chairman of the American Association of 
Credit Union Leagues (AACUL), as Chair of Credit Union House, LLC 
(Washington, DC), and as a Board member of the Filene Institute. Rosie 
also served on the Credit Union National Association (CUNA) Partnership 
Committee and the National Action and Response Program (NARP) 
Coordinating Council.
  Once named as one of the 25 most influential businesswomen in St. 
Louis, Rosie has positively impacted Missouri's financial services 
community through her leadership and educational efforts. Among her 
contributions to Missouri, she served on the Board of Trustees for the 
Missouri Council on Economic Education (MCEE) and the Board of Advisors 
for the University of Missouri's College of Health and Environmental 
Sciences: Personal Financial Planning Department.
  I've had the honor of knowing Rosie Holub for many years. She has 
represented the Missouri Credit Union Association, its employees and 
member credit unions with a warm personality and professionalism. My 
staff and I will miss her, but wish her God's blessing in retirement.
