            HONORING THE LIFE OF CAPTAIN DONALD LAMBERT, JR.

  (Ms. SPANBERGER asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. SPANBERGER. Mr. Speaker, I stand here to honor the life of 
Captain Donald Lambert, Jr.
  Last weekend, the Henrico County Police Department lost one of its 
own.
  Captain Lambert served in the Henrico Police Department for nearly 34 
years, and his fellow officers remember him as a true friend, mentor, 
and leader.
  I had the privilege of getting to know Captain Lambert through his 
work as the head of the Henrico Special Operations Group. Captain 
Lambert's security expertise helped keep me, as well as my 
predecessors, Congressmen Brat and Cantor, and our staffs, out of 
harm's way, and I am forever grateful for his dedication to his work.
  Captain Lambert was a pillar of our central Virginia community. He 
was a dedicated member of the Henrico Police Department, but he will be 
remembered as a gifted musician, a beloved Sunday school teacher, and a 
man who demonstrated true compassion for others.
  Captain Lambert's decades of selfless service to the community of 
Henrico and the Commonwealth of Virginia will never be forgotten.
  Our hearts are with his family, friends, and fellow men and women of 
the Henrico County Police Department as they honor his life.
