RECOGNIZING VINCENT J. DELMONTE
(Mr. CARTER of Georgia asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. CARTER of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and honor the CEO of the Frank Callen Boys & Girls Club, Vincent DelMonte.
Vincent has been a leader for the Boys & Girls Clubs for nearly 20 years and, with his retirement, leaves behind a legacy of selflessness and service.
The Boys & Girls Club's mission is to enable all young people to reach their full potential. Vincent certainly did that, and more.
Vincent assumed his role during a time of severe financial turmoil.
Vincent was able to navigate these troubles carefully and eloquently, making the Frank Callen Boys & Girls Club one of the Nation's top clubs.
With renewed finances and a heightened status, the club went on to improve the lives of not only its many members but the communities they serve under Vincent's guidance.
We hope Vincent truly enjoys his retirement. After what Vincent has done for the Frank Callen Boys & Girls Club, he has certainly done more than his fair share for our community.
Vincent is the type of man many should strive to be, someone who leaves the community he loved better than he found it.
Mr. Speaker, I congratulate Vincent on his well-deserved retirement.
