HONORING EVERETT BEAUREGARD
(Mr. BOYLE of Pennsylvania asked and was given permission to address
the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. BOYLE of Pennsylvania. Madam Speaker, I rise to honor Everett
Beauregard, who 1 year ago tomorrow was senselessly taken from us in an
act of gun violence in Philadelphia.
I thank Everett's family and friends for joining us in the House
gallery this morning and also thank them for the opportunity to stand
with them last

year to commemorate Everett's beautiful life.
I am here today because, like so many others, Everett impacted my
life and the lives of my staff for the better.
In 2018, Everett worked for me, helping my team in enthusiastically
engaging with Philadelphia residents about the issues that were most
important to them.
His commitment to serving the public was evident from the outset. It
was and is something for which I will always be grateful.
As we mark this tragic anniversary, I reiterate the Beauregard
family's ask that anyone with information regarding this senseless act
of violence please come forward.
Your help can bring the person responsible for this heinous act to
justice. Every piece of information, no matter how small, can help
bring a sense of closure to Everett's family and many friends. You have
the power to come forward and help. I implore you to do so.
Thank you, God, for this wonderful human being you gave us.
