  Mr. BUCK. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Mr. Thomas Bradbury 
on being selected for induction into the Farm Credit Colorado 
Agriculture Hall of Fame. This honor is reserved for those who have 
made a significant contribution to the agricultural industry of 
Colorado and the United States.
  Currently, Mr. Bradbury resides in Byers where he has been a leader 
in the Colorado livestock industry. He is currently a member of the 
National Western Stock Show Association, an organization that created a 
scholarship trust which helps over 80 students attend college annually 
for agriculture and rural medicine. In addition, he has served as 
President of the Rocky Mountain Quarter Horse Association and the 
American Hereford Association
  Mr. Bradbury also understands the importance of giving back to his 
community. He is a founder of his local rural telephone cooperative and 
shares his expertise about livestock with resident 4-H members. Mr. 
Bradbury has shown true leadership in his industry and community.
  On behalf of the 4th Congressional District of Colorado, I extend my 
best wishes as Mr. Bradbury pursues his future endeavors. His passion 
and dedication to the agricultural industry makes him more than worthy 
of this distinct recognition. Mr. Speaker, it is an honor to recognize 
Mr. Thomas Bradbury for his accomplishments.
