Mr. FITZPATRICK. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Virginia Midouhas, a remarkable constituent from my district, and to pay tribute today on the celebration of her 100th Birthday.

Virginia was born on January 9, 1924, in Geneva, Pennsylvania, as the only child of Mildred Wyatt. She attended Point Marion High School where she was in the chorus, Girls Trio and was a Drum Majorette. From Point Marion she moved to Bristol until 1963. Virginia has lived in the same house in Yardley, Pennsylvania since 1963.

Virginia and her husband Steve met at a factory that made airplane parts for WWII. She was the secretary to the company vice president and the project manager. Virginia and Steve have 3 wonderful children Amy, Stephen, and Elizabeth. She has 8 grandchildren and 2 great- grandchildren. Virginia has spent her summers on Long Beach Island, New Jersey.

Virginia has a deep love for music and is a classically trained singer. She enjoys listening to opera, Beverly Sills, and Renee Fleming. You can often find Virginia enjoying music and singing along to her favorites. We are incredibly grateful for the positive impact Virginia has had throughout her life, and we wish Virginia countless blessings.
