Mr. Speaker. I rise to pay tribute to a great Clevelander and a great American. George Simon of Brecksville. OH. George is a close friend of mine but that is not why I take this occasion to praise him. The reason I pay tribute to George today Is because George personifies both the American dream and the American entrepreneurial spirit. The son of Lebanese immigrants. George had to work hard for everything he has achieved in this life. He attended college while working fulltime. Later. still working virtually around the clock. George obtained a masters degree from Case Western Reserve University in business administration.
