                        HONORING JOE R. JANOSEC

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. SCOTT McINNIS

                              of colorado

                    in the house of representatives

                      Thursday, September 7, 2000

  Mr. McINNIS. Mr. Speaker, I would like to take this moment to 
recognize the outstanding service of the Honorable Joe R. Janosec, of 
Moffat County, Colorado. Mr. Janosec is retiring as Moffat County 
Commissioner after nearly a decade of service to his community. Joe's 
commitment to public service is obvious to all those around him and his 
contributions to his community have been many.
  Mr. Janosec began working in Colorado as an educator in 1962. His 
desire to educate America's youth led him to a career in education that 
spanned almost three decades. After serving as principal of Moffat 
County High School, he turned to elected office where his involvement 
was immense and his service admirable. In addition, Joe brought strong 
leadership abilities to a vast array of groups and organizations 
serving as a member of the Executive Board of the Colorado High School 
Activities Board, president of Western District CCI, Chair of the AGNC 
Coal Issues Committee and the Regional Transportation Committee.
  Mr. Janosec's natural ability to lead and desire to serve his fellow 
man will be greatly missed. He had donated nearly a decade to serving 
his community and has ensured that it is a better place in which to 
live.
