                   HONORING THE LIFE OF DRACO MILLER

  (Mr. PFLUGER asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. PFLUGER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in honor of Draco Miller, a 
cherished member of the Brownwood community who sadly passed away on 
February 16, 2023.
  Draco was a father, husband, son, businessowner, and public servant 
to the community of Brownwood as a city council member, mentor to our 
youth, and leader in numerous service-oriented boards and 
organizations.
  In 2022, Draco was named Man of the Year by the Brownwood Chamber of 
Commerce for his service to Brownwood. In his own words, he said: 
``This is my city, and I love my city. There is no place like home.''
  Although he loved and cherished Brownwood, his family was the most 
important facet of his life. He dedicated his life to passing along his 
long-held values of faith, family, and a strong work ethic.
  He is remembered for his seemingly endless energy, optimism, and good 
will that carried him through decades of community involvement and 
community improvement projects.
  Although we mourn his loss, I know his legacy will live on through 
his wife, Sonja; their children; many extended family members; and the 
entire Brownwood community.
