                    in the house of representatives

                         Thursday, May 24, 2018

  Mr. BURGESS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Heroes Park in 
Providence Village, Texas. Heroes Park, which will be dedicated on 
Memorial Day of this year, seeks to honor the selfless acts of men and 
women in uniform, first responders, and other unsung heroes. Today I 
would like to thank the Providence Village Hope Foundation for its work 
to establish this park and support our community's men and women in 
uniform.
  Each Memorial Day, we remember the brave members of our Armed 
Services who put their service to our nation first. While Heroes Park 
is a physical tribute to them, our gratitude and respect extends far 
beyond the confines of its land.
  I am grateful to join Providence Village Mayor Michael Jordan and 
Providence Village Hope Foundation Founders Eric and Karen Mattson to 
dedicate this beautiful park, and pay tribute to North Texas service 
members past and present.
