                      Tuesday, September 12, 2023

  Mr. FALLON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to commemorate the life of Mr. 
Daniel Rudolph Inman, a seventh generation Grayson County native, who 
passed away on August 8, 2023.
  Mr. Inman was born on July 17, 1989, in Sherman, Texas, to Timothy 
Rudolph Inman and Cheryl Dianne Patrick Inman. Mr. Inman graduated from 
Sherman High School in 2008, where he was a star varsity football 
player and officer in Future Farmers of America. Livestock and animals 
were his passion, and his hand-raised heifer won first place at the 
Houston Livestock Show. He attended East Central University in Ada, 
Oklahoma, on a full ride football scholarship. Mr. Inman's love for 
football dates back to his childhood, in which he accompanied his great 
uncle, Sam Johnson, to football games at Notre Dame. One of his fondest 
memories was seeing the Notre Dame locker room and touching the ``Play 
Like a Champion Today'' sign before walking onto the field.
  Mr. Inman later worked for Emerald Custom Pools in Saginaw, Texas, 
where he quickly rose through the ranks to become a manager. Thanks to 
his hard work and effort, Emerald Custom Pools was listed as 1 of the 
Top 50 Builders nationwide. Those who knew Daniel will tell you that he 
was a kind soul that was loved by everyone, especially his nieces and 
nephew. Mr. Inman was a devoted man of faith and was always willing to 
lend a hand to assist those in need. His empathy also extended to local 
animals and drove him to volunteer at the Friends of Lancaster animal 
shelter in Fort Worth. Without question, Mr. Inman's friends and family 
truly cherished each moment with him.
  I have requested the United States flag to be flown over our Nation's 
Capitol to recognize Mr. Inman's vibrant and uplifting life. He will be 
dearly missed by his friends, family, and all who knew him.
