  Mr. RICE of South Carolina. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize 
a very special lady, Miss Cleo Steele, founder and President of the 
North Myrtle Beach Republican Club and also a very dear friend.
  Cleo's dedication and invaluable service to her community and the 
Horry County Republican Party is unparalleled. During her three decades 
in South Carolina, she has worn many hats and been a master at each. 
She is a true leader who has been successful in everything she has 
tackled. Cleo's energy and tenacity are the envy of those a third the 
age. She never hesitates to tell you what she thinks, and I have 
learned you best listen. Her willingness to volunteer and help in any 
way possible epitomizes what it means to be a selfless servant. She is 
an inspiration to all that know her and all that know her are better 
for it.
  She has served as the Vice President of the Horry County Republican 
Party, two terms on the South Carolina GOP Executive Committee, and the 
secretary for my district. Cleo has been a county, state, and national 
alternate delegate to the Republican Party Convention. In all roles, 
she has demonstrated passion for the party's conservative platform and 
enthusiasm.
  Her presence and leadership in Horry County are irreplaceable. Cleo 
has been instrumental to the successes of the Republican Party in Horry 
County and throughout South Carolina.
  Madam Speaker, I join the people of Horry County in recognizing Cleo 
Steele. We honor her and thank her for her past and continued service 
to her community and the Nation.
