  Mr. GRAVES. Madam Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize two 
outstanding constituents of Missouri's Sixth Congressional District: 
Garland and Mildred King of Harrison County, MO. Garland and Mildred 
celebrated their 74th wedding anniversary on December 3, 2006.
  Garland and Mildred King were married on December 3, 1932 in Trenton, 
MO. They have 6 children, 14 grandchildren, 24 great grandchildren, and 
1 great-great grandchild on the way. They have owned a family farm in 
Harrison County for 64 years.
  Garland and Mildred King have been outstanding citizens of Harrison 
County and northwest Missouri. They are dedicated and active members of 
Melbourne Baptist Church where Garland is a deacon.
  Madam Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in recognizing Garland 
and Mildred King. Their marriage of 74 years is inspirational, and I am 
honored to represent them in the United States Congress.
