                      Wednesday, December 16, 2015

  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate Kay Raymond, of Creston, Iowa, for being selected as 
Creston Volunteer of the Year for 2015.
  Kay spent a number years teaching special education before retiring 
12 years ago. After retirement, Kay decided to use her free time to 
continue giving back to her community. Now she volunteers numerous 
hours a week as a volunteer for Friends of the Library, as a member and 
volunteer at the YMCA, and also gives back as a member of her church 
and at other local organizations.
  Mr. Speaker, Kay's dedication to her community and her fellow Iowans 
is a true testament to her character. Her efforts embody the Iowa 
spirit and I am honored to represent her and Iowans like her in the 
United States Congress. I ask that my colleagues in the United States 
House of Representatives join me in congratulating Kay for her 
achievements and wishing her nothing but continued success.
