  HONORING DIANE GLASSER, CEO OF THE JEWISH FEDERATION OF PALM BEACH 
                                 COUNTY

                                 ______
                                 

                        HON. THEODORE E. DEUTCH

                               of florida

                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, May 16, 2012

  Mr. DEUTCH. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in honor of Diane Glasser, the 
National and State Party Committeewoman and Vice Mayor of the City of 
Tamarac. As she concludes her term as Vice Mayor, we reflect on her 
years of dedicated community and public service which set a brilliant 
example for our future generations. It is truly an honor to represent 
her in the United States Congress.
  Ms. Glasser has been integral in the significant growth and progress 
that the City of Tamarac has made over the past 20 years. She is a 
truly active and inspirational leader. She is involved in many civic 
and national organizations, such as the AARP, Hadassah, JAFCO, and 
University Hospital. Within the City of Tamarac alone, she has been a 
Charter Board Member, City Commissioner, and Vice Mayor. Ms. Glasser 
epitomizes public service, and it is unfortunate that I can only 
mention just a few in a long list of her tremendous accomplishments. I 
can affirm beyond a doubt that she has been an important leader in the 
Democratic Party in South Florida, and I do not want her achievements 
to go unrecognized.
  It is a privilege to represent an individual who has done so much for 
Broward County and the City of Tamarac. I applaud her efforts, and even 
though her term has come to a close, I look forward to her continued 
good work for years to come.
  Congratulations to Diane Glasser, together with her children and her 
grandchildren, as they celebrate this well deserved honor.
