                            HON. TOM LATHAM

                    in the house of representatives

                        Tuesday, April 13, 2010

  Mr. LATHAM. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize the Gargano 
family for being the recipients of the Family Tradition Award at the 
2010 Humboldt County Spirit Awards.
  The Humboldt County Spirit Awards were established to recognize and 
honor outstanding groups and individuals who have worked for the 
benefit of all citizens of Humboldt County, to celebrate the 
accomplishments and activities of our communities, to acknowledge the 
value of volunteerism in the county, and to have a positive impact on 
community spirit.
  Annually included in the Spirit Awards, the Family Tradition Award is 
presented to a family who demonstrates support and devotion to the 
community through volunteerism.
  Madam Speaker, I am honored to represent the Gargano family in the 
United States Congress. I know that my colleagues join me in commending 
them for their sincere dedication to establishing a better community 
and wish them continued success well into the future.
