                   MEMORIAL TO KRISTY DANIELLE VAUGHN

 Mr. ALLARD. Mr President, Kristy Danielle Vaughn, daughter of 
Gary and Kelli Vaughn, of Joes, Co, was a promising young student about 
to report for duty this month at the United States Military Academy at 
West Point. She had been nominated for an appointment there by former 
U.S. Senator Hank Brown and myself when I served in the U.S. House of 
Representatives.
  She was a leader in her high school government, 4-H Club, sports, and 
school organizations, and received numerous awards in all areas. With 
all these responsibilities, she also gave much of her time to the 
duties of her family's farm. This bright young woman was suddenly 
killed in an auto accident recently as she was on her way to the All 
State Basketball finals in Greeley, CO.
  Kristy very actively contributed her time and talents to her school 
and her community. She will be greatly missed in Joes, and her 
opportunities and contributions at West Point will never be realized.
