               COMMEMORATING THE LIFE OF MICHAEL MORRISON

  Mr. GOSAR. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor the life of Michael 
Morrison. Michael was a contributor to the common good in a myriad of 
ways. He served his country in the Army and the Navy. He continued his 
career in law enforcement at the Monterey County Sheriff's Department 
and returned overseas to work in the securing of U.S. Embassies in 
Africa. After seven years in Africa, he founded a very successful 
security company in Arizona that still exists to this day--Lionheart 
Security Services.
  I got to know Michael at numerous roundtables and town halls 
throughout the years. He was a very sharp guy, who even helped me draft 
legislation shoring up security at U.S. Embassies. From my first 
interactions with him, I understood that nothing would stop this man 
from accomplishing the thing he sets his mind out to do. I am not at 
all surprised by the enormous success that Lionheart Security Services 
enjoys.
  I do not think that I have ever witnessed a resume that screamed 
patriot more than Michael--veteran, protector of U.S. government 
officials abroad, dabbler in legislation. When I imagine a modern-day 
pioneer, I think of Michael. To his family and friends, I offer my 
sincerest condolences and prayers. This America we love is what it is 
thanks to generous servants like Michael.
