On the recordJune 11, 2019
Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the life and memory of a resident of Bucks County, Pennsylvania, who passed away last month at the age of 96. Malcolm Crooks, a lifelong resident of Solebury Township, was a noted environmental and conservation leader. He was the founding member of the Honey Hollow and Aquetong Watershed Associations and was a member of the first Solebury Township Planning Commission. He also served on numerous boards that promoted environmental protection, including those of the Bucks County Audubon Society and the Bucks County Planning Commission. A man of devout faith, Malcolm was a member of Solebury Friends Meeting, and in the 1960s, he moved to Algeria and led a team of Quakers to assist local residents. Throughout his life, Malcolm and his wife, Elaine, continued to travel the globe and immerse themselves in world cultures. Mr. Speaker, Malcolm made our community a better place. Generations will continue to experience the beauty of our home because of his selfless work. I send my prayers and condolences to Malcolm's wife and his children--Sylvia, Malcolm, and Catherine--along with his entire family. In Memory of Pete Rossetti
