                         ADDITIONAL STATEMENTS

                                 ______
                                 

          TRIBUTE TO DR. ROBERT P. MAGGARD AND CHARLES MILBURN

 Mr. BURNS. Mr. President, I rise today to congratulate two 
outstanding Montanans, whose enthusiasm and work ethic exhibit the true 
spirit of our Nation.
  Each year the Experience Works program salutes our nations senior 
workforce. This non-profit organization selects an Outstanding Older 
Worker from each of the 50 States and Puerto Rico to pay tribute to the 
contributions that our older individuals are making in the workforce as 
well as in their communities.
  This Year Montana will be saluting the 2001 Outstanding Worker, Dr. 
Robert P. Maggard and the 2002 Outstanding Worker, Mr. Charles E. 
Milburn.
  Dr. Maggard, originally from Omaha, Nebraska, served in World War II, 
and then graduated from Creighton University where he studied 
dentistry. Dr. Maggard, moved to Yellowstone Valley, Montana and began 
his practice in the 1950's. He sold his practice in 1987 and began 
working with the Elite Denture center, which allows dentistry service 
at a reasonable price to thousands who would not otherwise be able to 
afford it.
  Charles Milburn retired from his long career in retail in New York 
City, to return home to his native state of Montana. After one year of 
retirement he began volunteering with the Computerized Books for the 
Blind. He quickly became the organizations most productive volunteer. 
He currently works at the Disability Services for Students and is now 
the president of Roxie M. Anderson Memorial fund which gives help to 
young teenage mothers.
  These two men are truly worthy of the Outstanding Older Worker award. 
This award represents the dedication these men have exhibited 
throughout their lives, and both the state of Montana and I are proud 
of their hard work.
