Mr. THOMPSON of Pennsylvania. Madam Speaker, I rise today to congratulate and celebrate a local business in my district. The Galaxy Federal Credit Union in Franklin, Pennsylvania, is celebrating its 80th anniversary.

The credit union was founded in 1940 by a dozen employees of Joy Manufacturing. For four decades, the credit union operated out of the Joy Manufacturing Factory, serving employees by helping them save and establish credit.

In 1981, the credit union opened its doors to other local companies in Venango County. In 2002, it became a community credit union.

The employees of Galaxy Federal Credit Union pride themselves on a ``people helping people'' approach to business.

Today, Galaxy Federal Credit Union serves nearly 5,000 members, including 400 youth members.

Madam Speaker, I would like to thank Linda Lusher Antonucci, as well as the employees, members, and volunteers who serve the residents of Venango County through the credit union.

Congratulations on 80 years.
