Congressional Record, Volume 171 Issue 6 (Monday, January 13, 2025) [Congressional Record Volume 171, Number 6 (Monday, January 13, 2025)] [House] [Page H109] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] CONGRATULATING FLORA SPELLER ON HER RETIREMENT FROM WORKING 46 YEARS AT McDONALD'S (Mr. DAVIS of North Carolina asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.) Mr. DAVIS of North Carolina. Mr. Speaker, after an incredible 46.5 years of working at the local McDonald's in Williamston, North Carolina, Flora Speller, affectionately known as Ms. Flo, is hanging up her uniform and retiring. She started work on June 29, 1978, at 18 years old. At that time, a Big Mac was 90 cents, and since, she has become a beloved fixture in the community. Nearly half a century, she has not just served meals; she has built strong community relationships with her customers and coworkers. She loves her customers, and they love her. Ms. Flo described McDonald's as her second home. When asked, she plans to travel more, however, she is contemplating returning to work part time. Where? At McDonald's. Mr. Speaker, I congratulate Ms. Flo on her retirement and thank her for the 46.5 amazing years. ____________________
