                       HONORING SHERRY STINEBISER

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Chair recognizes the gentleman from 
Pennsylvania (Mr. Thompson) for 5 minutes.
  Mr. THOMPSON of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, today I rise to recognize 
Sherry Stinebiser for decades of service to the communities of 
northwestern Pennsylvania.
  On June 25, 2011, Sherry was elected to a 1-year term as president of 
the ladies auxiliary to the Department of Pennsylvania Veterans of 
Foreign Wars, the VFW. Like every task Sherry has taken on in her long 
career of service, her primary goal as president has been serving 
others.
  Joining the Ladies Auxiliary in 1996, Sherry is a life member of Cleo 
Bargerstock Auxiliary 1424 in Marienville, Pennsylvania, which is 
located within the Pennsylvania Fifth Congressional District.
  Outside of the auxiliary, Sherry has worked for more than 30 years as 
a licensed practical nurse. She has volunteered her spare time as an 
emergency medical technician and serves as a board member of a group 
called Experience Incorporated, a local organization in Warren and 
Forest Counties dedicated to providing services to elderly citizens.
  Albert Einstein once said: Only a life lived for others is worth 
living.
  A model citizen who has committed her life to serving others, I 
believe Sherry would agree.
  Thank you for your service, Sherry.
