Monday, August 23, 2021
Mr. THOMPSON of Mississippi. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor a tenacious and ambitious young lady, Ms. Cubdeerix ``DeeDee'' Robinson. DeeDee has shown what can be done through hard work, dedication, and a desire to achieve.
DeeDee, a Yazoo native, was awarded the Doctor of Optometry Degree from Southern College of Optometry in Memphis, Tennessee. She graduated Summa Cum Laude and was named to the Beta Sigma Kappa Honorary Scholastic Fraternity. She also earned the William Dickerson, Jr. O.D. Scholarship, which honors a student's commitment to pursuing private practice optometry and comes with a $1,000 monetary award.
DeeDee is the daughter of Cubie Robinson and Dianne Willis. She is a graduate of Yazoo City High School and the University of Mississippi.
Madam Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in recognizing Ms. Cubdeerix ``DeeDee'' Robinson for her passion and desire to make a difference in the field of healthcare.
