HONORING NEW HAMPSHIRE STATE REPRESENTATIVE ROBERT A. LUTHER FOLLOWING 
                    HIS PASSING ON FEBRUARY 20, 2016

                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. FRANK C. GUINTA

                            of new hampshire

                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, March 2, 2016

  Mr. GUINTA. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor New Hampshire State 
Representative Robert Luther of Laconia, New Hampshire.
  On February 20, 2016, the State of New Hampshire lost a true public 
servant with Robert's passing. During this time of great sadness, we 
remember and celebrate the life of not only a dedicated law enforcement 
officer and legislator, but also a father, husband and friend.
  Representative Luther devoted his life to serving our communities and 
protecting our families, first as a member of the U.S. Navy from 1965-
1968, then as a police officer and security officer in the Laconia area 
from 1973-2009. A devoted public servant, he stayed engaged in local 
and state issues, serving as a member of the Laconia City Council and 
most recently as a member of the New Hampshire House of 
Representatives.
  As his family, friends, neighbors and all who knew Robert would say, 
he was really one of a kind. The dedication and compassion he 
demonstrated during his years of service are not--and will not--be 
forgotten. So let us take a moment today and pause, reflect, and 
celebrate the life of Representative Robert Luther.
