  Mr. DONOVAN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Annamarie 
Gulino Gentile on receiving the Community Service Award from the 
Italian American Women of Staten Island.
  Ms. Gentile graduated magna cum laude from the State University of 
New York at Albany and received her J.D. from Brooklyn Law School. She 
then rose to become the Supervising Partner at Angiuli & Gentile, LLP, 
where she handles matters such as real estate, family and matrimonial 
law, personal injury law, and, particularly, elder law. With her 
extensive background as an elder law attorney, Annamarie advises 
families in the event that a loved one requires long-term care.
  As a member of the National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys (NAELA) 
and as a Department of Veterans Affairs-Accredited Attorney, Annamarie 
has worked tirelessly to give our local veterans any and all legal 
advice they may need. Moreover, she is a passionate volunteer for 
various causes in support of senior citizens and those with special 
needs. But her service to the community doesn't stop there. She is also 
the Chair of the Board of Directors of the Staten Island Chamber of 
Commerce as well as Chair of the Community Agency for Senior Citizens 
(CASC). Ms. Gentile was also a recipient of the Staten Island Friends 
for Hospice Care Couple of the Year Award, and was an honoree of the 
Garibaldi's Meucci Annual Luncheon for her involvement as an Italian 
American in the Staten Island community.

  Mr. Speaker, I can think of no one more deserving of this award than 
Annamarie Gulino Gentile. I thank her for all she has done for our 
community, and I am proud to call her my constituent.
