RECOGNITION OF THE 50TH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY OF CHARLES AND ELIZABETH
SESSIONS OF PACE, FLORIDA
______
HON. JEFF MILLER
of florida
in the house of representatives
Thursday, September 15, 2011
Mr. MILLER of Florida. Mr. Speaker, on behalf of the United States
Congress, it is an honor for me to rise today to recognize Charles and
Elizabeth Sessions on the occasion of their 50th wedding anniversary.
Charles and Elizabeth Sessions were married on September 15, 1961 by
Reverend Bo Lowery at Pace Assembly of God. Charles and Elizabeth are
deeply rooted in Northwest Florida and are lifetime residents of Pace,
Florida. As active members in the local community, they were
entrepreneurs and owned several businesses in the area. Charles won the
first Pace Pioneer Award from the Pace Chamber of Commerce and served
on the first planning board for Santa Rosa County, all with Elizabeth
by his side.
Charles and Elizabeth are parents to three children, Greg and twins
Kim and Ken; and have two grandchildren, Chloe and Brandon. Now
retired, Charles and Elizabeth enjoy spending their time with their
family, traveling, and their favorite pastime--fishing on Lake
Kissimmee or on the river in Camden, Alabama.
Mr. Speaker, on behalf of the United States Congress, I am proud to
recognize Mr. and Mrs. Sessions on their 50th wedding anniversary. They
are truly an outstanding family from the First District of Florida. My
wife Vicki and I wish their entire family all the best.
