  Mr. NORCROSS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to offer my sincere 
condolences and honor the memory of Bellmawr, New Jersey, Councilman 
David Duncan for his exemplary life of service to the Bellmawr 
community. In addition to being a beloved husband, father, and 
grandfather, Mr. Duncan was a resident of Bellmawr for almost forty-
five years and spent his time giving back to his city.
  Mr. Duncan was an experienced insurance agent and a member of the 
Union Ironworker Local #399 for 35 years. For years, he led the effort 
to get out the labor vote on Election Day. As Councilman, David oversaw 
the Department of Public Safety, and Department of Health, and served 
as the Planning Board Liaison. In addition, Mr. Duncan was active in 
many Bellmawr organizations. He served on the executive board of the 
Bellmawr Democrat Club, as president of the Bellmawr Lions Club, and as 
a member of the Bellmawr Men's Club.
  Mr. Duncan was also a veteran of the United States Navy, as well as a 
dedicated member of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, one of the largest 
organizations for combat veterans in the world and I thank him for his 
service to our great nation.
  Mr. Speaker, David Duncan was an incredible man, dedicated to his 
family, community and country. He leaves behind a great legacy and I 
join the Bellmawr community and the entire state of New Jersey in 
honoring the achievements and the life of this great man.
