Mr. Speaker. I rise today to urge the Members of this House to join me in honoring Mr. Michael Evanoff. a retired attorney and immigrant whose writings and civic contributions have chronicled and shaped the history of Michigan and the Flint area for more than five decades. As we in the Seventh Congressional District well know. Mr. Evanoff has authored books that captured the depth and spirit of the working men and women of the east side of Flint. His confinement to a wheelchair in recent years did not deter him from researching and recording Important parts of the citys history. its ethnic neighborhoods. churches. events. schools. and families in three intense volumes treasured by all who value the rich history of our community.
