                    in the house of representatives

                       Tuesday, February 23, 2016

  Mr. MacARTHUR. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Mr. Vernon and Mrs. 
Shirley Hill of New Jersey's Third Congressional District as recipients 
of the Greater Philadelphia Area Leadership Award, and to express my 
sincerest gratitude to them for their continued service to our 
community.
  The Greater Philadelphia Area Leadership Award recognizes business 
and community leaders who have demonstrated a strong commitment to the 
area through distinguished service and steadfast philanthropy. The Hill 
family has been active in various charitable projects in the region 
through the operation of their family foundation. Whether it be their 
work with the University of Pennsylvania School Of Veterinary Medicine, 
or in supporting our troops through Operation Helmet, this award stands 
as a testament to their dedication to using their resources and 
experience to help promote the growth of society.
  Mr. Speaker, the people of New Jersey's Third Congressional District 
are tremendously proud to have Vernon and Shirley Hill as involved 
members of their community. It is my honor to celebrate their recent 
Greater Philadelphia Area Leadership Award and recognized their 
personal and professional accomplishments, as well as their significant 
contributions to our community, before the United States House of 
Representatives.
