                       Monday, November 30, 2015

  Mr. HASTINGS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to wish my very dear friend 
Lottie Albert a happy 100th birthday. Lottie was born on December 25, 
1915 to Eva and Louis Wernick in New York City. Twenty-one years later, 
Lottie married Sol Albert and the two enjoyed 55 years of marriage, and 
have two lovely daughters, Harriet and Doreen. Lottie is the 
grandmother to Eric, Glenn, and Lowell, as well as a great-grandmother 
to Kyle, Samantha, Heather, and Seth.
  Lottie has been a resident and community leader of Broward County for 
over 40 years. I am truly grateful for her selflessness and tireless 
service.
  In 1988, she was inducted into the Area Agency on Aging's Dr. Nan S. 
Hutchinson Broward Senior Hall of Fame. Additionally, Broward County 
honored Lottie in 2005 by declaring November 12th as ``Lottie Albert 
Appreciation Day.'' In 2012, Lottie was inducted into the Broward 
County Women's Hall of Fame for her work with the Ann Storck Children's 
Center, the Elderly Interest Fund's MEDIVAN Program, and the 
Alzheimer's Family Center.
  It has been my honor to witness Lottie's commitment and passion for 
serving her community. Her civic engagement is an example to us all. I 
have enjoyed a personal friendship with Lottie over many years, and 
look forward to celebrating her birthday with her on December 5th in 
Sunrise, Florida.
  Mr. Speaker, on the momentous occasion, please join me in wishing 
Lottie Albert a happy and wonderful 100th birthday.
