                       Thursday, November 3, 2022

  Ms. BONAMICI. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor the life of Denise 
Bacon, and to recognize her many years of service to the residents of 
Newberg, Oregon.
  Denise was an advocate, active community member, and treasured friend 
and colleague to many. As a longtime city council member, Denise was a 
champion for families and worked tirelessly to better the lives of the 
residents of Newberg, especially its most vulnerable community members. 
In times of crisis and stability, Denise was a leader, a bridge-
builder, and a policymaker with deeply-rooted integrity. Yamhill County 
is a better place because of Denise's devotion to improving the lives 
of those around her.
  I express my sincere condolences to Denise's family, colleagues, and 
all those she served. We can honor her legacy by building kinder 
communities and leading with respect. Let us continue to serve others 
in her memory.
