                    in the house of representatives

                       Wednesday, March 20, 2002

  Mr. McINNIS. Mr. Speaker, I would like to take this opportunity to 
recognize an outstanding individual from Penrose, Colorado. Over the 
years, Dale Sherfey has distinguished himself as a businessman, a 
community leader, and a vital participant in maintaining civic 
responsibilities throughout the region. Dale's achievements are 
impressive, and it is my honor to recognize several of those 
accomplishments today. Dale is a generous soul whose good deeds and 
actions certainly deserve the recognition he has recently received.
  Dale is the owner and operator of a local feed store in Penrose, a 
successful business he has run for many years. He has carried on a long 
tradition of quality guidance and service to his many clients in the 
area, resulting in an operation dedicated to remaining true to high 
standards of honesty and integrity. His success in the industry has led 
to several honors including a recent tribute presented by the Colorado 
House of Representatives.
  Throughout his success, Dale and wife Kathy, have remained active in 
their community. They have actively volunteered their time and energies 
to many local community organizations and Dale is frequently seen about 
the area lecturing to 4-H groups and farmers.
  Mr. Speaker, Dale Sherfey's achievements have also recently been 
rewarded by his community through the Penrose Chamber. The chamber 
named Dale the Penrose Chamber Distinguished Citizen of the Year, an 
award given to an outstanding and well deserving individual who has 
selflessly given of themselves to directly benefit their community. It 
is now my honor to congratulate Dale on his most recent and well-
deserved award from this organization by bringing his good deeds to the 
attention of this body of Congress, and this nation. Dale, you have 
been a model citizen for Penrose and Colorado and I extend my thanks 
for your efforts. Keep up the good work and good luck to you and your 
wife Kathy in your future endeavors.
