[Congressional Record (Bound Edition), Volume 152 (2006), Part 13] [Extensions of Remarks] [Page 18158] [From the U.S. Government Publishing Office, www.gpo.gov]A TRIBUTE TO ANTHONY J. STAGLIANO ______ HON. ROBERT A. BRADY of pennsylvania in the house of representatives Wednesday, September 13, 2006 Mr. BRADY of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to celebrate my friend Anthony Stagliano's 50th year in America. Fifty years ago a 9- year-old Anthony said goodbye to his father in Naples, Italy and boarded a ship to the United States of America. Little Anthony came to America seeking a land of opportunity and found it in Philadelphia. Anthony quickly mastered the English language and went on to graduate from Bok Vocational High School. Anthony is a devoted family man married to his beloved American beauty Joanne. They have been fortunate to be blessed with four children--Maria, Angela, Gina, and Anthony, Jr. who have each graduated from college. Anthony Stagliano served his country in the United States Army from 1961-1963. He also took an interest in civic affairs, having served as a committee person for over 30 years. He was an exemplar Temple University Corrections officer, Philadelphia Housing Authority officer, and was on the Court tipstaff. He is currently serving the Philadelphia City Council as the Sergeant-at-Arms. It is an honor to recognize a person who exemplifies the positive impact immigrants can have on the United States. Anthony's service to the City of Philadelphia, military service, and wonderful family are to be praised. I ask you and my other distinguished colleagues to join me in commending Anthony Stagliano for his 50 years of contribution to our country. ____________________
