                               of alabama

                    in the house of representatives

                        Tuesday, April 20, 2010

  Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Madam Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to 
a very special occasion. On April 23, 2010, Bob and Kay Lord will 
celebrate their 50th Wedding Anniversary.
  On April 23, 1960, Bobby Ray and Francis Kay Lord were united in holy 
matrimony in Beaumont, Texas. Bob and Kay have one daughter, Anieca, 
the joy of their lives. As they have worked and traveled throughout the 
world, their house was always open.
  Whether you were a young person needing the love and structure of a 
solid home, or just a place to gather for good food and music, you were 
always welcomed. All were blessed to witness their faith, love and 
generosity.
  To celebrate their anniversary, family and friends will gather in 
their honor in Colmesneil, Texas at Lake Amanda, to recognize Bob and 
Kay's life together and share the great memories over the years.
  I salute this lovely couple on the 50th year of their life together 
and join their family and friends in honoring them on this special 
occasion.
