                                 ______

                    in the house of representatives

                         Monday, March 14, 2016

  Mr. GUINTA. Mr. Speaker, I would like to extend my sincerest 
condolences and sympathy to the family of Jim Watson of Bedford, New 
Hampshire.
   Mr. Watson served his country honorably in the United States Army 
during the Vietnam War. He later started his own business in 1981, 
Watson Insurance Agency, and remained a well-known and respected 
businessman in New Hampshire until his retirement in 2011. Jim 
continued to stay engaged in causes in the community after his 
retirement, such as the Boy Scouts of America, and was an active member 
of the Disabled American Veterans (DAV) and active in local party 
politics.
   I know that Jim will be best remembered for his kindness and 
willingness to help others in the community. New Hampshire lost a true 
friend to the community and we will forever be grateful for his hard 
work and many contributions over the years.

                          ____________________
