  Mr. TIPTON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Helen ``Taddy'' 
Swinson of Brush, Colorado. Ms. Swinson was a mother, grandmother, 
volunteer and philanthropist. Her devotion to her family and work for 
the less fortunate left an indelible mark on the community.
  Ms. Swinson was a longtime member of the Red-Cross and volunteered 
much of her time to the Meals and Friendship program. She also worked 
tirelessly for the Alter and Rosary Society at her church, St. Mary's 
Catholic Church. Her family was always a priority and it shows in the 
happiness and success that they enjoy today.
  Mr. Speaker, it is an honor to recognize a woman who did so much for 
her community and country today. There is no doubt that the values she 
demonstrated will live on through those who knew her and those she 
cared for during her life.
