                      Wednesday, November 19, 2003

  Mr. McINNIS. Mr. Speaker, it is with great pride that I rise today to 
pay tribute to a remarkable woman from my district. Marilyn Hall of 
Cortez, Colorado is a dedicated public servant who has devoted many 
years to promoting safety and order in her community. Marilyn has a 
friendly soul and touches the heart of everyone she meets. I would like 
to join with my colleagues here today in recognizing Marilyn's 
tremendous service to the Cortez community.
   Marilyn served the Cortez Police Department for 29 years. She began 
as a dispatcher and then moved to records before retiring. Marilyn was 
excellent at her job and was instrumental making the system of city and 
county record keeping significantly more efficient. In her retirement, 
Marilyn is an active community member who is a vigorous advocate for 
Mothers Against Drunk Drivers. In addition to volunteer work, Marilyn 
will spend her retirement with her many loving family members and 
friends.
   Mr. Speaker, Marilyn Hall has shown incredible dedication in her 
service to the Cortez community. Marilyn's friendly assistance to 
others is a shining example of what it means to be a good citizen. It 
is my great honor today to recognize her excellent work ethic and 
selflessness before this body of Congress. Thanks Marilyn, you will be 
missed.
