I rise today to recognize the extraordinary service of Mother Pearlie Mae Brown, a woman of strong devotion and commitment to her community and our Nation.

Pearlie Mae Brown is currently the First Lady of the Greater Bible Way Church in Prince Frederick, Maryland, where she is the most active and most cherished member of its congregation.

I rise today to recognize an outstanding artist, William Krawczewicz, whose design was recently selected to appear on the back of the Maryland quarter, to be issued in March of 2000.
