  Mr. RODNEY DAVIS of Illinois. Madam Speaker, I rise today to 
recognize the Grand Opening of the Edward Amburg History Museum in 
Grafton, Illinois, which will take place on Saturday, June 19, 2021.
  At age 83, Edward Amburg passed away in November of 2018. He is 
remembered by the community for his dedication to historical research 
of his beloved community.
  Thanks to Ed's efforts the City of Grafton received funding to build 
a museum focused on its storied past. The museum will include documents 
and artifacts donated by the Grafton Historical Society that will 
represent the rich boat making, manufacturing, and farming history that 
Grafton is known for.
  Ed's passion and dedication for the history of Grafton will carry on 
through the museum that bears his name.
  Again, I thank Ed for the legacy he left behind and congratulations 
to his wife Bobbie and the entire community. I look forward to visiting 
this great addition to the City of Grafton.
