  Mr. DINGELL. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to Kolman 
Krishan, who passed away on July 2, 2005, at the age of 85. Mr. Krishan 
was a Veteran of World War II, serving from January 1943 until 
September 1945, primarily in the Panama Canal Zone. Mr. Krishan was 
born March 3, 1920 in Union Town, Pennsylvania. He moved to Lincoln 
Park, Michigan in the late 1930s and finally settled in Newport, 
Michigan with his wife Lois. Mr. Krishan worked for Detroit Edison and 
leaves behind three children and three grandchildren. His life serves 
as a prime example of his generation, with commitment to the values of 
hard work, sacrifice and duty.
