                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. RODNEY DAVIS

                              of illinois

                    in the house of representatives

                         Monday, June 15, 2015

  Mr. RODNEY DAVIS of Illinois. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor my 
constituents, Dr. Sadiq Mohyuddin, Mrs. Talat Gul Mohyuddin, and their 
son Dr. Yusuf Mohyuddin, who have established an endowment fund at OSF 
St. Anthony's Health Center in Southwestern Illinois to promote and 
enhance pulmonary medicine.
  Forty-four years ago, Dr. Sadiq Mohyuddin began serving on the 
medical staff at St. Anthony's, consistently demonstrating a dedication 
to promoting pulmonary disease awareness and prevention.
  In 2007, Dr. Sadiq Mohyuddin's son, Dr. Yusuf Mohyuddin, joined the 
St. Anthony's Physician Group, further demonstrating this family's 
dedication to the well-being of their community.
  This dedication has been evident for years. In 1989, Dr. Mohyuddin 
served as chairman for an oriental garden project that was donated to 
the city of Alton and, to this day, serves as a reminder of the 
family's commitment to their community
  I am proud to recognize the Mohyuddin family's most recent endeavor 
of establishing an endowment fund to promote and enhance pulmonary 
medicine. The endowment will not just

increase awareness and prevention of pulmonary diseases, but will also 
support technological advances in both Illinois and Missouri.
  As more than 20 percent of all cancer cases at St. Anthony's are lung 
and bronchus cases, this new endowment will benefit and make a 
significant impact on the region's healthcare system.
  I am proud to honor them for their exemplary efforts to save lives 
and improve the healthcare services throughout the southwestern 
Illinois and Missouri.
