 REMEMBERING THE LIVES OF LAVEL DAVIS, JR., DEVIN CHANDLER, AND D'SEAN 
                                 PERRY

  (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 as a Virginian, a UVA 
alumna, and a Member of the U.S. House of Representatives to remember 
the UVA football teammates who were shot and killed earlier this week.
  For the University of Virginia, it has been an unimaginable loss for 
their families, and it has been an unthinkable reality.
  This week, we remember Lavel Davis, Jr. We remember Devin Chandler. 
We remember D'Sean Perry.
  Both on the field and off the field, their classmates, their coaches, 
their professors, and their loved ones saw their commitment to success. 
They saw their selflessness, their curiosity, and their determination 
to make the University of Virginia, the Commonwealth of Virginia, and 
our Nation a stronger place.
  Please join me in remembering their lives, honoring their memories, 
and standing strong as their families mourn. We also stand with the 
University of Virginia student body, professors, the community, the 
entire football team, and all those who are impacted by this horrific 
loss.
  We also pray for the recovery of Michael Hollins, Jr., as he and his 
family continue on the long road to healing.
  This week has demonstrated the resilience of the UVA community. May 
we forever remember the lives that were lost: Lavel Davis, Jr., Devin 
Chandler, and D'Sean Perry.
