            IN RECOGNITION OF THE LIFE OF JAMES W. ANDERSON

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. MIKE ROGERS

                               of alabama

                    in the house of representatives

                        Monday, November 2, 2009

  Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Madam Speaker, I would like to request the 
House's attention today to pay recognition to the memory of James 
Anderson of Salem, Alabama.
  Mr. Anderson was born on December 12, 1969, and grew up in Smiths 
Station, Alabama. Mr. Anderson was married to Corinna and blessed with 
two children, Kristopher and Kelli, and a grandson, Jason James. Mr. 
Anderson loved Alabama football and Columbus Cottonmouth hockey.
  Mr. Anderson served our community as a deputy for the Lee County 
Sheriff's Office. On September 24, 2009, Mr. Anderson was intentionally 
and tragically struck by an automobile during a traffic stop. He was 
transported to Columbus Medical Center where he, despite best efforts, 
later passed away.
  He will be sorely missed, but remembered as a man who gave selflessly 
for his fellow Alabamians. Let us continue to pray for his loved ones 
at this difficult time.

                          ____________________
