  Mr. KUCINICH. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in tribute and recognition of 
James D. Quisenberry of Lakewood, OH, upon his induction into the Ohio 
Veterans Hall of Fame, Class of 2005.
  Mr. Quisenberry was one of twenty inductees selected by a 13-member 
executive committee comprised of veteran leaders from throughout Ohio. 
He is a highly decorated veteran, and has infused an unwavering sense 
of integrity, spirit, courage and energy into all personal and 
professional endeavors.
  For the past 18 years, Mr. Quisenberry has been an active volunteer 
with the March of Dimes, and his vital outreach as a sponsor and 
counselor with Alcoholics Anonymous has uplifted the lives of countless 
individuals and families throughout our community. He also served for 
many years as a Boy Scout Leader. Mr. Quisenberry was instrumental in 
establishing the ``Greater Cleveland Veterans Memorial,'' and has 
reflected an ongoing spirit of volunteerism and leadership roles with 
numerous veterans and civic organizations. He is the current president 
of the Memorial Day Association of Greater Cleveland, which organizes 
the placement of flags on graves of veterans at Holy Cross Cemetery.
  Mr. Speaker and colleagues, please join me in honor and recognition 
of James D. Quisenberry, upon his induction into the Ohio Veterans Hall 
of Fame. Mr. Quisenberry's unwavering commitment to his family, 
community and country, continues to enrich our community and our entire
