                 HONORING THE LEGACY OF SHIRLEY McKAGUE

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. RUSS FULCHER

                                of idaho

                    in the house of representatives

                         Friday, June 26, 2020

  Mr. FULCHER. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize the honorable 
life and work of a beloved fellow Idaho native. A graduate of Idaho 
schools, a successful small business co-owner, and a leader in public 
service--also a long-time personal friend and legislative colleague of 
mine, Shirley McKague will be dearly missed. First, as a State 
Representative, then an Idaho State Senator, Shirley worked her way 
into the hearts of her colleagues in the Idaho Statehouse through her 
wit, charming personality, and talent. For her family, Shirley leaves 
behind her husband Paul of 50 years, and six children to carry on her 
wonderful legacy. I am honored to highlight a life of success and 
positive influence. As a genuine conservative, Shirley was instrumental 
in the Idaho State Legislature and in the public service careers of 
countless fellow Idahoans who refer to her as their inspiration. In 
everything she did, Shirley was always more interested in the welfare 
of fellow Idahoans than that of her own. Shirley was a beacon in our 
local communities and known as someone who was thoughtful and soft-
spoken, but always on target. God bless Shirley and her family. We will 
also miss her, and her passion for life.
