  Mr. BILIRAKIS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and honor the 
unique contributions of one of my constituents, Christie Williams, who 
serves as a volunteer Board Member for the local non-profit, 
Brooksville Main Street. These outstanding volunteers put in hundreds 
of hours while running their businesses and organizations. They have 
all come together for a common cause--to serve the community by 
bringing much-loved events to downtown Brooksville. Each of these board 
members have servant hearts, and their dedication and commitment to our 
community is impressive. Part of what makes our country so great is the 
willingness of ordinary Americans to go above and beyond to selflessly 
give back to others. Volunteerism is one of the cornerstones of our 
society and part of the fabric that unites us.

  It is clear that Ms. Williams and her fellow board members have made 
a profoundly positive impact on our community, and I am grateful for 
her service.
