Congressional Record, Volume 172 Issue 78 (Thursday, May 7, 2026) [Congressional Record Volume 172, Number 78 (Thursday, May 7, 2026)] [Extensions of Remarks] [Page E419] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] CELEBRATING THE 81ST BIRTHDAY OF PATRICIA KEATING ______ HON. JOE WILSON of south carolina in the house of representatives Thursday, May 7, 2026 Mr. WILSON of South Carolina. Mr. Speaker, on May 9, 2026, we will celebrate the 81st birthday of Patricia Lou Keating of Chicago, Illinois. Ms. Keating was born on May 9, 1945, in Chicago to Marie and Louis Kalowski, as the younger sister to Carol Gregory. Patricia has lived the American dream working to serve the community until her retirement earlier this year. She has raised three daughters; Karen Roder, Jackie MacHarg, and Heather Perez. I am grateful for Patricia's service to the community and for sharing her grandson, Michael MacHarg, II, an invaluable contributor to our office. I wish Patricia Keating a Happy Birthday, and best wishes for many more. ____________________
