                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, June 17, 2009

  Mr. POE of Texas. Madam Speaker, I would like to recognize and thank 
Kenneth Wayne Hudson for his service in the United States Navy. The 
hard work and devotion he has demonstrated through out his career 
serves as an example to us all. Kenny has served our country with 
courage and honor both at home and abroad.
  See Madam Speaker, during the Vietnam War Kenny chose to leave high 
school before graduating to serve his country. After the war, he began 
his career and was never able to return to school to obtain his high 
school diploma. It is with great pleasure that I am today 
congratulating Kenny on his most deserved accomplishment of receiving 
his high school diploma from Humble High School. I know all his family 
and friends are very proud.
  Kenny has recently retired from the workforce and I know he will 
enjoy the company of his wife Becky and three children, Michelle, Chad 
and Todd.
  This great country will forever be in Kenny's debt. I wish him the 
best of luck in his future endeavors. He will continue to reach new 
levels of accomplishment.
  We appreciate his service to America and his commitment to keeping 
our nation the ``Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave.''
  And that's just the way it is.

                          ____________________
