  Mr. BRADY of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, I rise to honor the upcoming 
90th birthday of Fraulein Lamar. Born on December 30th, 1923, Ms. Lamar 
has lived a life of service and dedication to Pennsylvania's First 
Congressional District.
  Unlike many women of her generation, Ms. Lamar carved out a career 
for herself at two of our city's landmark institutions. Working for 
U.S. Customs and Border Protection for twelve years, Ms. Lamar 
safeguarded our borders and made citizenship to the United States a 
reality for countless individuals around the globe. She went on to work 
for the Philadelphia Quartermaster Depot for thirteen years. What's 
more, Ms. Lamar balanced her busy career with a robust family life and 
is devoted mother and grandmother.
  I ask you and my other distinguished colleagues to join me in 
congratulating Ms. Lamar on this most important of birthdays. May we 
all learn from her legacy of hard work, commitment, and passion.

                          ____________________
