                       Thursday, January 22, 2015

  Mr. RATCLIFFE. Mr. Speaker, one of the most rewarding parts of my job 
is seeing the extraordinary work that constituents do giving back to 
their communities every single day.
  They don't do it for fame, and they don't do it for glory. They do it 
because they want to make a difference. No one person embodies this 
spirit of service better than Margo Nielsen.
  During her 25 years at the helm of Helping Hands, the organization 
has seen tremendous growth and helped tens of thousands of people by 
ensuring that essential health and emergency services are available to 
everyone in Rockwall County.
  Margo--congratulations on your remarkable career. Your leadership 
will be missed, but your legacy not soon forgotten. Thank you all for 
joining me in honoring Margo and supporting Helping Hands. God Bless.
