  Mr. GRAVES of Missouri. Mr. Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize 
Joshua D. McPherson. Josh is a very special young man who has 
exemplified the finest qualities of citizenship and leadership by 
taking an active part in the Boy Scouts of America, Troop 444, and 
earning the most prestigious award of Eagle Scout.
  Josh has been very active with his troop, participating in many scout 
activities. Over the many years Josh has been involved with scouting, 
he has not only earned numerous merit badges, but also the respect of 
his family, peers, and community. Most notably, Josh has contributed to 
his community through his Eagle Scout project. Josh installed a bench 
and placed landscaping rock at Park Hill Christian Church in Kansas 
City, Missouri.
  Mr. Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in commending Joshua D. 
McPherson for his accomplishments with the Boy Scouts of America and 
for his efforts put forth in achieving the highest distinction of Eagle 
Scout.
