                    in the house of representatives

                      Wednesday, February 2, 2000

  Mr. McINNIS. Mr. Speaker, I would like to take a moment to pause and 
remember a man that will be missed by many people in Southern Colorado. 
Dr. Robert S. Young passed away on January 19, 2000. He was 85 years 
old.
  Dr. Young was the medical director of CF&I Steel Corporation from 
1969 to 1984 and again in the early 1990's. He loved working at the 
steel mill. He was dedicated to assuring that workers followed safety 
rules to prevent injuries suffered from occupational hazards. When 
injuries did occur, Dr. Young was always ready to make sure the 
employee was fully recovered before returning to the workplace. He 
enjoyed the associations he developed with staff and employees. His 
relationships at the mill were the most satisfying part of his career.
  Dr. Young was a medic in World War II and during his time overseas, 
he worked with Dr. Hatt from Massachusetts who was in charge of the 
Shiners Hospital. Dr. Young worked at the Shiners Hospital for Crippled 
Children in Honolulu after the war.
  Dr. Young had a private practice in Fort Scott, Kansas and Pueblo, 
Colorado for 26 years. He will always be remembered for giving the best 
care to his patients .
  It is with this, Mr. Speaker, that I would like to offer this tribute 
in memory of Dr. Robert Young. His memory will live forever in the 
commitment of quality care for patients.
