                   HONORING THE LIFE OF DON NICHOLAS

  (Mr. WILLIAMS of Texas asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute.)
  Mr. WILLIAMS of Texas. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the life 
and legacy of my dear friend, Don Nicholas.
  Don was a crucial member of the Texas 25th Congressional District 
team for over 10 years and dedicated his life to selflessly serving his 
country.
  Time and time again, he stepped up to help those in need, day or 
night. He never missed a call from a veteran and opened his home up to 
soldiers every holiday.
  Don was a 31-year Army veteran, a man of great faith and a loving 
husband, father, and grandfather, and always believed the North Dakota 
State Bison were going to win every game.
  America lost a patriot, Texas lost a servant leader, and we all lost 
a friend. He will be dearly missed by those privileged to know him.
  I am honored to celebrate the life and impact that Don had on so 
many. In God we trust.
