                   HONORING FRANK HARRIETTE CALDWELL

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. SCOTT McINNIS

                              of colorado

                    in the house of representatives

                        Tuesday, October 2, 2001

  Mr. McINNIS. Mr. Speaker, I would like to take a moment to recognize 
the loss of a very generous, caring member of our community. Frank 
Harriette Caldwell died on Sunday, September 16, 2001 after enduring a 
prolonged illness. A woman devoted to helping others, ``Frankie'' 
passed away at the age of 83.
  Mrs. Caldwell was born on June 2, 1918 in Galveston, Texas. She 
received her teaching degree at the University of Denver and began her 
life of service. She started teaching in Colorado at the Mitchell 
Elementary School in 1956 and remained there for twenty-seven years. 
She retired from teaching in 1983. Although her career in teaching 
contributed significantly to the children in her community, she did not 
stop there. She was also active in fundraising for charities, an active 
member of the Denver Links and contributed significantly to other local 
organizations including the Denver Junior Police Band. In addition to 
these contributions to her community, she was a loving wife of sixty 
years and mother to four. Mrs. Caldwell was also the proud grandmother 
to eleven and great-grandmother to seven.
  Mr. Speaker, Mrs. Caldwell was a valued member of her community and 
will be missed by many. Her charity has affected so many lives in so 
many ways. She will be remembered and loved for all that she has done. 
I would like to express my deep sympathy to her family in this time of 
mourning and thank her for the contributions to our community.
