  IN HONOR OF OUR UNITED STATES VETERANS AND THE PARMA VETERANS CENTER

                                 ______
                                 

                        HON. DENNIS J. KUCINICH

                                of ohio

                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, June 7, 2005

  Mr. KUCINICH. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in honor and recognition of 
all veterans of the 10th Congressional District of Ohio for their 
service, bravery, and dedication on behalf of our country. Most 
significantly, we stand in tribute and remembrance of those veterans 
who have made the ultimate sacrifice when they answered the call to 
duty.
  The lives of many veterans and their families have been uplifted by 
the outreach efforts of the Parma Veterans Center--a haven of services 
and assistance focused on the emotional, psychological, medical, 
financial, and employment needs of thousands of veterans and their 
families.
  The services and support provided by the Parma Veterans Center is the 
least we can do on behalf of our veteran--our brothers, sisters, sons 
and daughters, mothers, fathers and grandfathers--thousands of whom 
have made significant sacrifices and suffered great losses during and 
after their unwavering service to our country.
  Mr. Speaker and Colleagues, please join me in honor, tribute and 
gratitude to the men and women of our armed forces--let us forever 
remember their service, sacrifice and sense of duty--yesterday, today, 
and for generations to come.

                          ____________________
