                       TRIBUTE TO CAROL SALISBURY

 Mr. ALLARD. Mr. President, on this occasion I pay tribute to a 
dear friend and employee, Carol Salisbury. Carol joined my office in 
January of 1991, when I was first elected to Congress from the Fourth 
Congressional District. One of my original staffers, Carol has served 
my office and the people of Colorado for 14 years, and she has done so 
with grace and conviction. She will be leaving my office in January 
2005.
  Carol began her career working out of my Fort Collins Congressional 
office, and later, the Senate offices in Greeley and Loveland. As Area 
Director, she managed the office and provided dedicated service on a 
variety of issues, including housing and

healthcare. Carol was instrumental in establishing the Fall River 
Visitor Center at Rocky Mountain National Park, the acquisition of 
Cherokee Park by the Forest Service, and many other smaller projects 
that have greatly benefitted our public lands and will lead to greater 
enjoyment by the public. She was passionate about historic preservation 
and worked tirelessly on behalf of many worthwhile interests, including 
the historic Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad in Southern Colorado. Her 
presence on Team Allard will be missed and I know the Northern Colorado 
community will miss her as well. Carol was a hard working and earnest 
friend and employee.
  My wife, Joan, joins me in thanking her for dedication and loyalty. 
We both wish her and her husband Jack the best in their future 
endeavors.
