                       Monday, February 25, 2019

  Mr. CARTWRIGHT. Madam Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Patrick 
Moran, who was celebrated as the Hibernian of the Year by the Ancient 
Order of Hibernians, Monsignor Farrell Division on February 23, 2019. 
The Monsignor Farrell Division No. 2 Chapter of the Ancient Order of 
Hibernians and its founders exemplify the core principles of charity, 
concern for our fellow man, and commitment to educating students about 
the sacrifices and accomplishments of prior generations.
  A Carbondale native, Pat was born on August 31, 1953 to Joseph and 
Margaret Moran. Pat is a graduate of St. Rose High School, Class of 
1971. A veteran of the Navy, Pat worked at Tobyhanna Army Depot after 
discharge. He then moved to the greater Denver Area where he worked for 
Continental Air Lines before owning and operating his own business.
  Upon his retirement in 2012, Pat returned to Northeast Pennsylvania 
and became active in several local community organizations. Today, he 
is a member of the Columbia Hose Co. and the American Legion in 
Carbondale. Pat's involvement with the AOH began when he joined the 
organization's Golf League. He became increasingly involved in 
volunteer efforts by the AOH. He is currently a member of Ring and 
Shuffleboard leagues, as well as a volunteer bartender every Monday 
evening and for many Division functions.
  It is an honor to recognize Patrick Moran as he is named Hibernian of 
the Year by the Ancient Order of Hibernians, Monsignor Farrell 
Division. I thank him for his service to his country in the U.S. Navy 
and his continued service to our community with the AOH. I congratulate 
him for receiving such an honor from his fellow brothers in the Ancient 
Order of Hibernians.
