             TRIBUTE TO KOHRS LONNEMANN HEIL ENGINEERS PSC

 Mr. BUNNING. Mr. President, today I pay tribute to Kohrs 
Lonnemann Heil Engineers for being named the Kentucky Small Business 
Person of the Year.
  Joseph R. Kohrs, Robert A. Heil, Robert A. Lonnemann are the leaders 
of Covington's Kohrs Lonnemann Heil Engineers, a mechanical and 
electrical engineering firm offering heating, ventilating, air 
conditioning, electrical, fire protection, plumbing and communication 
technology consulting engineering services. Being one of the few firms 
in the area offering this combination of services, today, it has carved 
its own sizable niche, providing excellence in engineering, design and 
field services to Kentucky.
  Kohrs Lonnemann Heil Engineers is an outstanding example of how 
Kentuckians use their entrepreneurial talent, drive and vision to 
create opportunities not just for themselves, but for others. What 
began as a humble business almost 47 years ago is now a leading 
engineering firm that is a leader in giving back to the community.
  Northern Kentucky is fortunate to have Kohrs Lonnemann Heil Engineers 
as a home-based business. But more importantly, it is fortunate to have 
Mr. Kohrs, Mr. Heil, and Mr. Lonnemann call Northern Kentucky home. I 
appreciate their loyalty to Kentucky and their community. The company 
has been a shining example of leadership, hard work, and compassion. 
They are an inspiration to all throughout the Commonwealth.
  Congratulaions, Kohrs Lonnemann Heil Engineers. You are Kentucky at 
its finest.
