______
HON. GERALD E. CONNOLLY
of virginia
in the house of representatives
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

Mount Vernon District: Lady Jan Vaughan and Lord William ``Bill''
Vaughan
Providence District: Lady Janet Kerr-Tenner, PhD and Lord Charlie

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

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.
