  Mr. HALL. Mr. Speaker, I am honored today to pay tribute to a 
dedicated patriot who passed away this year, Roy L. Stewart.
  Roy Stewart proudly served his country in the U.S. Air Force for more 
than 29 years. Most notably, he was a survivor of the attack on Pearl 
Harbor. After his military service, he worked for General Dynamics in 
Fort Worth,

Texas and later started his own business, Roy Stewart Heating and Air 
Conditioning. Roy actively served his community as a Mason. He was a 
Master Mason of River Oaks Lodge No. 1311, a member of Moslah Shrine, 
the Scottish Rite and York Rite Bodies, a Past Patron of the 
Polytechnic Eastern Star, and a dual member of the Castleberry Eastern 
Star.
  Born in Waco, Texas, Roy Stewart is survived by his wife, Thelma H. 
Stewart, daughter, Frances S. Reynolds, and husband, Michael E. 
Reynolds of my hometown of Rockwall, TX, son, Roy Victor Stewart and 
wife, Kathleen. He also was the proud grandfather of eight 
grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren. Roy will be long 
remembered as a steadfast citizen who dedicated his life to serving 
others, and the community of Fort Worth will miss his friendship. On 
behalf of his many friends and fans, I want to take this opportunity in 
the House of Representatives to pay our last respects to this honorable 
man--Roy L. Stewart.
