                      Wednesday, February 5, 2003

  Mr. McINNIS. Mr. Speaker, it is with deep sadness that I rise today 
to recognize the life and passing of Jan Lemon of Norwood, Colorado. 
Sadly, Jan passed away in October and, as her family mourns their loss, 
I would like to pay tribute to her life and the wonderful memories she 
has left behind.
  Jan Lemon was born on November 27, 1960 in Yakima, Washington, where 
she grew up and graduated High School. After graduating from college in 
Cheyenne, Wyoming, Jan moved to Ridgway, Colorado, where she made her 
home and married her husband Dale in 1991. Jan was a Coloradan who 
loved the land and all the opportunities that our mountains had to 
offer. She was an avid horsewoman who became a skilled rider, rancher, 
and roper. She loved spending time with friends and family, and 
contributed greatly to the quality of life throughout the Norwood 
community. -
  Mr. Speaker, it is with earnest respect that I recognize the life and 
passing of Jan Lemon before this body of Congress and this nation. I 
extend my sincere condolences to her parents, Daniel and Marguerite, 
husband Dale, and daughter Cortney. Jan lived her life to the fullest 
and was loved and admired throughout the Norwood community. Her loss 
will be deeply felt and her memory will live on for years to come.
