                    in the house of representatives

                      Thursday, September 7, 2000

  Mr. McINNIS. Mr. Speaker, I would like to take this moment to commend 
the Honorable Cleo Day on her distinguished service as Custer County 
Commissioner in Colorado. Serving as County Commissioner since 1992, 
Ms. Day has focused on a whole array of important issues, including 
efforts to protect property rights and helping improve the Emergency 
911 service in Custer County.
  Before becoming County Commissioner, Ms. Day ran a number of small 
grocery stores throughout Colorado that were committed to the service 
of the local citizens. After leaving the grocery store business, Ms. 
Day ran for County Commissioner to give back to the community that had 
given so much to her. Her commitment to the wellbeing of the citizens 
of Custer County is honest and sincere and was ever present in her 
everyday actions. Cleo has served Custer County, her state and nation 
admirably and she will be missed.
  It is with this, Mr. Speaker, that I say thank you and 
congratulations to this public servant and wish her all the best in her 
future endeavors.
