                      REMEMBERING BRUCE MacINTYRE

 Mr. TESTER. Mr. President, today I wish to honor the memory of 
a great Montanan who left his mark on countless lives.
  Bruce MacIntyre devoted his life to the betterment of Billings, MT. 
Bruce's service to his community started at his father's car 
dealership. After returning from the University of Notre Dame, Bruce 
took over the family business, successfully running it with integrity 
and passion.
  It didn't take long for Bruce to expand his horizons by serving in 
community leadership positions. He eventually sold the dealership to 
devote his time to others. Bruce quickly began consulting for 
businesses around Billings, helping them evolve and grow, creating jobs 
and opportunities along the way.
  Bruce eventually joined the Billings Chamber of Commerce as director 
of government affairs, fostering relationships between businesses and 
local officials to expand the economy and establish lifelong 
connections. Bruce was well-known in Billings and across the State as a 
humble, generous mentor who always had time to give advice or lend a 
hand or even simply to listen to someone who needed it.
  His other passion was ensuring students got a quality education. 
Bruce was instrumental in passing numerous levies to benefit students 
and teachers, and in 2017, he was elected to serve as a trustee for 
Billings SD2, where he lent his insight and expertise to creating a 
better future for all students.
  I rise to remember this great man, who selflessly dedicated his life 
to his community. Montana is a better place because of Bruce.
