beautiful vibrant metropolis. Louie's achievements in the business 
world are equally notable. He is a past chairman of the chamber of

community, he has been an active leader in the American Red Cross, 
YMCA, Junior Achievement, and Posada. In addition, Louie was also the 
recipient of the Sam Walton Outstanding business leader of the year 
award for Pueblo, Colorado.
  The people of Colorado have every right to be proud of Mr. Carleo. On 
behalf of the people of Colorado, I thank you, Louie, for your service.
