                        Wednesday, June 12, 2019

  Mr. CONNOLLY. Madam Speaker, I rise to recognize a dedicated group of 
men and women in Northern Virginia. Every year, each member of the 
Fairfax County Board of Supervisors selects two people from his or her 
district who have demonstrated outstanding volunteer service, heroism, 
or other exceptional commitments and contributions to our community. 
Since the program's inception in 1984, approximately 600 individuals 
have earned the honor of being named a Lord or Lady Fairfax by his or 
her representative on the Board of Supervisors
  This year, the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors will recognize 
those individuals who have made tremendous impacts through their 
support of our public schools, parks, youth sports leagues, arts 
community, public safety, and human service programs. It is nearly 
impossible to fully describe the diversity of accomplishments of the 
honorees. Their efforts contribute greatly to the quality of life for 
the residents of Fairfax County and are worthy of our praise and 
sincere appreciation.
  It is my honor to include in the Record the names of the 2019 Lords 
and Ladies Fairfax:
  At-Large: Lady Pam Michell and Lord Randy Sales
  Braddock District: Lady Jeanne Kadet and Lord Mike Perel
  Dranesville District: Lady C. Melissa Jonas and Lord Wayne Winston 
Sharp, PhD
  Hunter Mill District: Lady Janet Bradshaw and Lord Francis Steinbauer
  Lee District: Lady Phyllis Walker Ford and Lord Joe Blackwell
  Mason District: Lady Elizabeth ``Libby'' Novak and Lord Victor Nguyen
  Mount Vernon District: Lady Jan Vaughan and Lord William ``Bill'' 
Vaughan
  Providence District: Lady Janet Kerr-Tenner, PhD and Lord Charlie 
Hall
  Springfield District: Lady Jenee Lindner and Lord Jim Kirkpatrick
  Sully District: Lady Audrey Farrar Morton and Lord Brian Aiello
  In addition, a number of other awards are being given to individuals 
for their service to the community and to the Celebrate Fairfax! 
Festival, including four members of the Fairfax County Board of 
Supervisors who are retiring at the end of this year. I am pleased to 
include in the Record the names of the following individuals:
  James M. Scott Community Spirit Award: Cathy Chianese and Lynn 
Strobel
  Celebrate Fairfax Volunteer of the Year: Faiyaz Faruque
  Celebrate Fairfax Ambassador Award: Chairman Sharon Bulova, 
Supervisor John Cook, Supervisor Cathy Hudgins, and Supervisor Linda 
Smyth
  Madam Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in commending and 
expressing our gratitude to these men and women who volunteer their 
time and energy on behalf of our community. Their efforts, which are 
deserving of our highest praise, provide immeasurable benefits to their 
fellow residents and serve as a reminder of why Fairfax County remains 
such a great place to live, work, and raise a family.
