                   HONORING THE LIFE OF ALAN ALBERTUS

                    in the house of representatives

                          Monday, May 17, 2004

  Mrs. MUSGRAVE. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the life of a true 
American. Alan Albertus was a man that served his country in the U.S. 
Air Force, as well as his community as an engineer. He was an 
outdoorsman who had few peers, respecting the land God had blessed us 
with while enjoying the challenges of Colorado's Rocky Mountains.
  Alan gave much of his time to defending our constitutional right to 
bear arms, and often instructed young families on firearms safety, 
reloading, and firearms ballistics. He was active in politics--he 
organized rallies, celebrated the Bill of Rights, and was a delegate to 
conventions. Alan believed the best legacy he could leave to America 
was that of freedom, and he worked hard to preserve that freedom.
  Most importantly, Alan Albertus served his family and his Lord and 
Savior, Jesus Christ. He will be missed.
