                        REMEMBERING ENDY EKPANYA

  (Mr. OLSON asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. OLSON. Mr. Speaker, there is great pain and agony in Pearland, 
Texas, and all across America. Pearland police officer Endy Ekpanya was 
killed in the line of duty while on patrol in Pearland. He was killed 
at 3:15 a.m. on Sunday. He died 45 minutes later at a hospital.
  Endy was only 30 years old. He had been with the Pearland police 
force for less than a year. His fellow D squad officers said he was 
always eager to learn, and with that huge smile. Endy was the first 
Pearland policeman killed since 1973. As you can see, Endy leaves 
behind a wife and a young son.
  Mr. Speaker, I will use my remaining time to say a silent prayer to 
honor Endy.
