  Mr. BUCK. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the generosity of 
Virginia Kinch and her family in Longmont, Colorado.
  Last year during the holiday season, Virginia and her daughters were 
preparing to deliver Thanksgiving meals to the homeless. They were 
shocked to hear about a family living in a broken down school bus 
behind a truck stop, so they went to deliver food to them. They 
discovered that this struggling family had three young daughters--a 5 
year old, a 14-month old, and a 4-week old. After providing the family 
with a hot meal, Virginia wanted to do more to help. Fortunately, the 
Kinch's had just completed renovations on a house in Greeley that they 
planned to rent out or sell. Instead, Virginia went above and beyond 
and decided to invite the struggling family to move into that home 
rent-free.
  The kindness and selflessness displayed by the Kinch family is truly 
remarkable. They fully embody the Christmas spirit of giving, and are 
an inspiration to us all. For that, I am pleased to honor and recognize 
their outstanding act of kindness.
