                  PAYING TRIBUTE TO EDNA WILSON MOSLEY

                           HON. SCOTT McINNIS

                              of colorado

                    in the house of representatives

                       Wednesday, March 24, 2004

  Mr. McINNIS. Mr. Speaker, it is a privilege to rise today to pay 
tribute to Edna Mosley for her selfless dedication to the community of 
Jefferson County, Colorado, and congratulate her on receiving the 
``Power of One'' award at the 2004 Colorado Woman Conference. The 
conference recognizes individual women, selected by Colorado newswomen, 
who have made an extraordinary difference in their community, and it is 
my privilege to acknowledge Edna before this body of Congress and this 
nation today.
   As an active member in her community, Edna dedicates her efforts to 
a vast array of civic functions. Tamara Banks of KWGN-TV selected Edna 
for this award in recognition of her hard work and dedication toward 
the redevelopment of Lowry Air Force Base and Fitzsimons Army Base. 
When Lowry was decommissioned, Edna helped transform Lowry into a 
popular home development and community with shops and stores, and 
Fitzsimons now houses the prestigious Colorado University Health 
Science Center. Her extensive involvement in Aurora includes serving on 
the Aurora City Council for three terms, serving as co-founder of the 
Denver-Nairobi Sister Cities Committee, and serving as president and 
chair of Denver Sister Cities International.
   Mr. Speaker, it is my privilege to recognize Edna Mosley today 
before this body of Congress and this nation and congratulate her on 
receiving the ``Power of One'' award. Her exceptional civic service has 
done much for the betterment of the City of Aurora and the State of 
Colorado. I thank her for her service and wish her all the best in her 
future endeavors.
