[Congressional Record (Bound Edition), Volume 156 (2010), Part 12] [Extensions of Remarks] [Page 16520] [From the U.S. Government Publishing Office, www.gpo.gov]TRIBUTE TO MARY TREVINO ______ HON. CHARLES A. GONZALEZ of texas in the house of representatives Friday, September 24, 2010 Mr. GONZALEZ. Madam Speaker, today I would like to recognize a woman who has reached a milestone in her life that few have had the opportunity to reach. Most individuals are lucky to see 80 years of life. Few have ever reached the age of 90. But fewer still have had the blessing of living on this earth for 100 years, the course of an entire century. That is why it is with great honor I come to you today to recognize the 100th birthday of Mrs. Mary Trevino, on this day, the 26th of September, year 2010. Mrs. Trevino has spent the last one hundred years growing in wisdom, her work ethic, and her love for others. Like all people, her life is marked with both times of testing and times of celebration. What makes Mrs. Trevino an outstanding woman, however, is that she has gone through her trials with great perseverance, and through her times of celebration with great joy. As a woman that embodies the entrepreneurial spirit, one of Mrs. Trevino's greatest accomplishments in her life is the founding of El Mirador Restaurant. This restaurant has been the means by which Mrs. Trevino's passions for sharing great food and good company have had a way to express themselves. El Mirador is a place that has contributed to the community of Texas' 20th District for more than 40 years, and like Mrs. Trevino, it is still going strong. Madam Speaker, that is why I would like to ask my colleagues to join me in honoring and celebrating the 100th birthday of Mrs. Mary Trevino; for a life well lived and years more to live well. I wish Mrs. Trevino all the best and hope that our nation's great City of San Antonio can be blessed by her presence for many more years to come. May her days be filled with life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, for her and her loved ones. ____________________
