                        Wednesday, March 6, 2019

  Mr. HUDSON. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor and congratulate 
Sharon Moyer for receiving the 2019 Athena Award from the Fayetteville 
Chamber of Commerce.
  The Athena award is highly coveted and is presented to the individual 
that represents the greatest support for the goals of professional 
women. Recipients of this award demonstrate excellence, creativity, and 
initiative in their profession and provides valuable service by 
contributing time and energy to improve the lives of others in the 
community.
  Sharon Moyer has proven worthy of this award time and again with her 
innovative thinking, natural leadership, and ability to meet 
competitive deadlines. She inspires others with her personable attitude 
and her willingness to work hard and invest in the growth and success 
of others around her. Sharon has been an active part of the Partnership 
for Children program and initiated ``Historic Hauntings: A Ghastly 
Ghost Tour'' to help children learn the history of Fayetteville. I have 
personally attended one of her annual soirees for the Partnership for 
Children and have seen the product of her leadership firsthand.
  There are many children in our community more prepared to reach their 
full potential due to Sharon's philosophy ``persistence beats 
resistance.'' Our community is better because of Sharon and I am 
thrilled she is being recognized for her talent and dedication.
  Madam Speaker, please join me today in congratulating Sharon Moyer on 
receiving the 2019 Fayetteville Chamber of Commerce Athena Award.
