                       Monday, September 25, 2017

  Mrs. WALORSKI. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Dale and 
Judy Stickel on celebrating 50 years of marriage.
  Having met in kindergarten and attended Junior prom together, they 
knew the stars had aligned early in their lives. Their heartwarming 
story of a childhood friendship that turned into a lifetime of love 
makes this golden anniversary all the more special. Not only that, 
their lasting commitment, not only to one another but to their family 
and community, is a shining example of devotion and faithfulness in our 
country.
  Dale and Judy have lived in northern Indiana nearly their entire 
lives, and I have no doubt the positive influence they've had here will 
last far into the future. They exemplify the hardworking and 
compassionate citizens we all strive to be. I am truly inspired by 
their passion to help others and their efforts to make service a family 
tradition.
  It is clear that their love for one another and the family they have 
built grows stronger each day. Now 50 years later we have a wonderful 
reason to celebrate. Fifty years of marriage is a marvelous 
accomplishment, and this milestone speaks volumes about the love and 
compassion they share with one another, as well as their tremendous 
foundation of faith.
  Dale and Judy have built a life together that revolves around making 
a difference in the lives of others. It is no surprise the example 
they've set will ensure their legacy of selflessness, community, love, 
and faith is passed along to their three children and six 
grandchildren. Mr. Speaker, on behalf of 2nd District Hoosiers, it is 
my honor to congratulate Dale and Judy Stickel on their anniversary and 
join their family in celebrating this milestone.
