               RECOGNIZING JOHN DICUS' SERVICE TO TOPEKA

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. STEVE WATKINS

                               of kansas

                    in the house of representatives

                         Monday, July 15, 2019

  Mr. WATKINS. Madam Speaker, today I rise to recognize a man that 
embodies everything it means to be a Kansan, and a Topekan. As the 
Topeka Capitol-Journal recently highlighted, John Dicus has made 
himself a fixture in the Topeka community. While some decide to take 
their talents elsewhere, John decided to use his talents to better his 
hometown. John has taken it upon himself to lead the charge of 
revitalizing our downtown area, most notably a $2.5 million dollar 
investment in the Evergy Plaza. John has taken action on his vision for 
Topeka and the city is better because of it. I know John shares the 
same sense of pride for his hometown as I do. Keep up the great work. 
He is making us all proud.
