  Mr. CARTWRIGHT. Madam Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Mickey 
Kane who received the Wyoming Valley Children's Association's (WVCA) 
``Making A Difference'' Award along with her husband Kevin Kane on 
Friday, March 22, 2019 during the organization's 95th Anniversary Gala.
  The WVCA provides quality, early childhood education as well as 
physical, occupational, and speech therapy programs to students and 
developing children that have been diagnosed with Autism, Down 
syndrome, or speech delays. The ``Making A Difference Award'' 
recognizes individuals who go above and beyond in their commitment and 
service to the WVCA.
  Mickey is a Senior Registered Associate with Morgan Stanley in Wilkes 
Barre, PA. She started with Morgan Stanley's predecessor firm in 1988. 
Mickey holds a General Securities Representative License (Series 7) and 
passed the Uniform Combined State Law Examination (Series 66). Mickey 
is essential to several Morgan Stanley Financial Advisor teams, and she 
is responsible for administrative and account services for Wealth 
Management clients.
  Kevin and Mickey are the proud parents of two children: Katie and 
Sean. Together they established the Sean P. Kane Memorial Fund in honor 
of their son. It is intended to support services, programs, and causes 
aligned with health, wellness, and wellbeing of people across the 
community, with an emphasis on individuals with special needs.
  Mickey has been active in the WVCA Walk-A-Thon for more than 25 
years, coordinating ``Team Katie'' for that event. In addition, she 
also works on the committee for the annual Sean P. Kane Memorial Mixer.
  It is an honor to recognize Mickey as she and Kevin accept the 
Wyoming Valley Children's Association's ``Making A Difference'' Award. 
May they continue to support the early childhood education needs of our 
community.
