  Mr. GRAVES. Madam Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize William 
Ressler of Kansas City, Missouri. William is a very special young man 
who has exemplified the finest qualities of citizenship and leadership 
by taking an active part in the Boy Scouts of America, Troop 215, and 
earning the most prestigious award of Eagle Scout.
  William has been very active with his troop, participating in many 
scout activities. Over the many years William has been involved with 
scouting, he has not only earned numerous merit badges, but also the 
respect of his family, peers, and community. He was also the recipient 
of the Eagles Soaring High award.
  Madam Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending William 
Ressler for his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of America and for 
his efforts put forth in achieving the highest distinction of Eagle 
Scout.
