 COMMEMORATING THE LIFE AND LEGACY OF STATE REPRESENTATIVE ELISEO ALCON

  (Ms. STANSBURY asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. STANSBURY. Mr. Speaker, I stand before you today with a heavy 
heart as we remember and honor the life and legacy of my dear friend 
and mentor, State Representative Eliseo Lee Alcon.
  Chairman Alcon's legacy and passing leaves a hole in our community, 
but his legacy will live on.
  A veteran, a judge, a State representative, a beloved father, 
grandfather, and great-grandfather, Representative Alcon dedicated his 
life to public service and was rooted in our community.
  A fierce advocate for the people, the economy, the environment, and 
our government, all New Mexicans across the State will miss him as we 
grieve his loss. Our prayers are with his family and everyone who loved 
and learned from Representative Alcon.
  We will work to carry his vision forward and continue his fight to 
lift up our veterans and our military, our children and our elders, and 
all New Mexicans whom he loved so deeply.
  Rest in peace, dear friend. We will miss you.
