minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. KIHUEN. Mr. Speaker, today I rise to remember the life of Laura 
Shipp.
  Laura attended the Route 91 festival in Las Vegas on October 1.
  Laura was a single mother to her son, Corey, who is a Marine Corps 
reservist.
  Laura and her son had a strong relationship, and she had even moved 
from California to Las Vegas so she could be closer to him.
  Laura loved the Los Angeles Dodgers and country music. She was 
protective of those that she loved and had a big heart.
  Laura is remembered as being a smart woman who would always make sure 
to buy her son and nephew a toy or a snack, even when she didn't have a 
lot of money.
  Mr. Speaker, I would like to extend my condolences to Laura Shipp's 
family and friends. Please know that the city of Las Vegas, the State 
of Nevada, and the whole country grieve with you.
