  Mr. SMITH of Missouri. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the 
remarkable 100th birthday of Dorothy Wilson. Dorothy was born on August 
14, 1916 in Tipton, Indiana.
  Dorothy is the daughter of Alta and Lou Pursley. She graduated from 
Summerville High School in Summerville, Missouri and then went on to 
work at Colling Radio in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Dorothy spent many 
cherished years with her loving husband, Bill Wilson.
  Dorothy enjoys all of the time she gets to spend with her family. She 
is a kind and loving person that has brought joy to many lives 
throughout her years. She is known within her community for her 
generous heart.
  Dorothy has reached a huge milestone in her life by celebrating her 
100th birthday. The characteristics that she has displayed thus far in 
her life have proven to show her as an exceptional person. She has been 
an extremely beneficial member to our society and with that it is my 
pleasure to recognize Dorothy before the United States House of 
Representatives.
