                   HONORING THE MEMORY OF JOSEPH CORR

  (Ms. TENNEY asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. TENNEY. Mr. Speaker, today, I rise to honor the life and memory 
of New Hartford, New York Police Officer Joseph Corr. Fifteen years ago 
last month, Officer Corr was shot and killed in the line of duty while 
in pursuit of a robbery suspect.
  Joe Corr, who was born and raised in my hometown of New Hartford, New 
York, was a dedicated father to Kaitlyn, a loving husband to Tracie, 
and a hero who served and protected our community with honor.
  Today, the Officer Joseph D. Corr Foundation proudly honors Joe's 
memory and gives back to his fellow members in blue by supporting other 
families who have experienced similar tragedies. His parents, Dave and 
Kathleen, continue to provide their love and counsel to those families 
as well.
  Officer Corr's death is a sad reminder of the dangers our brave men 
and women face each day in the line of duty. These heroes deserve our 
unwavering respect for the sacrifices that they make each and every day 
to keep our communities safe.
