                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, July 26, 2018

  Mr. CALVERT. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor and pay tribute to 
Howard ``Reed'' Heritage, who passed away on Saturday, July 21, 2018.
  Reed was born and raised in the town of Richwood, New Jersey. Reed 
was part of the first class at nearby Clearview High School and later 
graduated from Delaware Valley College. In the early part of the 1970s, 
Reed moved to California, where he would go to work on behalf of the 
California Farm Bureau. As an advocate for one of California's largest 
industries, Reed represented farmers and sought solutions to the many 
challenges that impacted their businesses.
  When he was not working on behalf of California farmers, Reed loved 
to cheer on his favorite sports teams--including the San Francisco 
49ers and the San Francisco Giants. Reed was also a big fan of the 
Olympic Games and traveled to watch the games in person in Athens, 
Beijing, Atlanta, Montreal, Los Angeles, and Sydney. Traveling to new 
cities throughout Europe and Asia was one of Reed's favorite past 
times.
  I want to extend my heartfelt condolences to Reed's family and 
friends, who I know will deeply miss him.
