  Mr. DAVIS of Illinois. Mr. Speaker, on Saturday I attended a funeral 
in my community, a funeral of an outstanding American, one who spent 
time in Vietnam, who served his country, but then who came back and was 
a quiet, gentle man. He raised a great family, served as an election 
judge, was actively involved in helping others. And I simply express 
condolences to the family of my good friend Carl D. Ashley, who gave 
his life in the service of others. A great American, great 
humanitarian.
