               REMEMBERING THE LIFE OF LILLIAN R. BARCIO

  (Mr. PENCE asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. PENCE. Mr. Speaker, I rise to remember the life of the devoted 
wife, courageous mother, publisher and journalist Lillian Rose Barcio.
  Lillian Barcio died February 29, 2004, in Indianapolis where she was 
born in July of 1931. She is survived by her loving husband of 31 
years, Bernard; her daughters, Marsha Louzon, Sheryl Donnella, Karen 
Pence, Cyndi Barcio; and her son, Phillip Barcio. In addition, she is 
survived by eight grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.
  Through many hardships, Lillian Barcio kept her faith in Christ and 
her humor and optimism about life. The Bible says that charm is 
deceptive and beauty is fleeting but the woman who fears the Lord is to 
be praised.
  Lillian Barcio, my mother-in-law, was such a woman whose life would 
merit remembrance in this Congress even if she had not raised the most 
wonderful woman I have ever known. May God rest the soul of Lillian 
Barcio and bring rest and comfort to her loving husband Bernie and all 
those who mourn her passing.
