  Mr. ROGERS of Michigan. Madam Speaker, I rise today in memoriam of 
Mike Fuoss, who was shot and killed on Friday, September 11, 2009. Mike 
was a small business owner, father, brother and friend to many in the 
greater Owosso community.
  Mike was born February 7, 1948, in Owosso. He graduated from Corunna 
High School in 1966. He went on to study Diesel Mechanics and Business 
at Ferris State University. In 1999, he married his wife, Barbara.
  Mike co-owned a number of small businesses throughout Owosso, 
including Fuoss Gravel Co. and Eddie O'Flynns.
  He was a member of the Owosso Home Builders Association, and the 
Shiawassee County Chamber of Commerce.
  Mike loved restoring old cars and hot rods, enjoyed riding his 
Harley, and was a fan of NASCAR.
  Fuoss was a good American who died tragically. The people whose lives 
he touched through his contributions to the community will miss him 
dearly.
