                    in the house of representatives

                       Tuesday, December 10, 2013

  Mr. MESSER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the memory of a 
community leader and friend, Mayor Dick Pasco of Greenfield, Indiana.
  Dick Pasco was a dedicated public servant who spent the better part 
of his life serving the people of Greenfield. Dick's work for the city 
began in 1972 when he was appointed to the Greenfield Park Board. He 
was later elected to the city council where he would serve for twenty 
years. Dick would go on to hold a variety of positions on the 
Greenfield Planning Commission, Council for Economic Development, 
Hancock Boys and Girls Club, United Way, and Kiwanis International. 
Dick Pasco served on the Hancock County Council before being elected 
Mayor in 2011.
  The City of Greenfield has lost a pillar of the community and a 
dedicated civic leader. Mayor Pasco set an example we can all aspire 
to. His life, including four years in the United States Navy, has been 
dedicated to serving others and making his community a better place to 
live. His commitment to Greenfield will be forever appreciated. I will 
forever appreciate his friendship and ask the citizens of the 6th 
Congressional District to join me in keeping his wife Joan, daughters 
Jennifer Pasco-Beck and Patricia Pasco and son Richard Pasco II in your 
thoughts and prayers.
