RECOGNIZING CROSSROADS QUARTET'S 60-YEAR ANNIVERSARY
(Mr. COMER asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. COMER. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize Crossroads
Quartet for their 60th anniversary of vocalizing Southern Gospel music
throughout Kentucky and other States.
Founded in 1960 in Russell Springs, Kentucky, this fine group of
constituents has now been active within the music world for 60
consecutive years. They have traveled thousands of miles, worn out four
Dodge vans, and touched numerous lives.
While some of the names and faces have changed, the inspiring mission
of Crossroads Quartet has remained a constant. Today founding member
Vernie McGaha, alongside Brian McGaha, Dave Powell, and Randy Hart,
continues to fulfill the original calling of Crossroads Quartet.
I am proud to be their voice in Washington and am confident that
their musical ministry will be active for many years to come. Their
decades of contributions are certainly deserving of recognition by this
entire body.
