  Mr. GRAVES. Madam Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize the 
achievements of Shawn Wells, husband, father, and the postmaster of 
Cowgill, MO, who passed away on December 10, 2006.
  Mr. Wells was a 22-year veteran of the United States Postal Service 
and throughout his career was a clerk at the St. Joseph, MO Post 
Office, and the officer in charge at the Rushville, Dearborn, Mound 
City and Easton Post Offices.
  Mr. Wells not only provided his valuable service to the United States 
Postal Service, he also was a veteran of the United States Navy and 
served on the USS Hunley.
  Madam Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in recognizing the life 
and achievements of Shawn Wells, whose dedication and service to the 
United States Postal Service is truly admirable.
