                    in the house of representatives

                      Wednesday, December 5, 2012

  Mr. OWENS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize one of my 
constituents, Wayne Roberts, for his 50 years of service in Upper Jay, 
NY.
  In his various capacities with the Upper Jay Volunteer Fire 
Department, Mr. Roberts served his community with dedication and 
tireless effort. Last year when the Town of Jay was severely affected 
by Hurricane Irene, Mr. Roberts spent countless hours toward the relief 
and recovery effort. Currently, as the Fire Department's Commissioner, 
he serves Upper Jay and remains integral in the rebuilding effort from 
Hurricane Irene.
  Again, I congratulate Mr. Roberts on his 50 years of service. I 
cannot thank him enough for his commitment to his community and wish 
him all the best in the years to come.
