                 IN REMEMBRANCE OF TWO INDIANA LEADERS

  (Mr. STUTZMAN asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. STUTZMAN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in sadness over the loss of 
two northeast Indiana community leaders.
  Jac Price, a lifetime LaGrange County native, passed away on Sunday, 
September 6, at the age of 76. Jac, a member of the United States Army, 
a LaGrange County commissioner and business leader, loved his country, 
State, and community very much. In a testament to this, last month, Jac 
was awarded the prestigious Sagamore of the Wabash award--our State's 
highest honor--by Governor Mike Pence. He will be missed by many, and I 
rise today to honor Jac's service to our State.
  Indiana also lost Garrett Mayor Tonya Hoeffel on Sunday as well. 
Tonya passed away at the age of 52, living a life dedicated to DeKalb 
County and the city of Garrett, Indiana. Her heart for serving her 
community represented true Hoosier values and is an example for all of 
us to follow. Her contagious smile will be forever missed. I continue 
to keep her husband, children, and family in my prayers.
