  Mr. GRAVES of Missouri. Mr. Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize 
Byron Meador. Byron 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 135, and earning the most 
prestigious award of Eagle Scout.
   Byron has been very active with his troop, participating in many 
scout activities. Over the many years Byron has been involved with 
scouting, he has not only earned numerous merit badges, but also the 
respect of his family, peers, and community. Most notably, Byron has 
contributed to his community through his Eagle Scout project. Byron 
constructed a set of stairs to the outdoor classroom at Hawthorne 
Elementary School in Kearney, Missouri.
   Mr. Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending Byron Meador 
for his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of America and for his 
efforts put forth in achieving the highest distinction of Eagle Scout.
