                      Wednesday, September 7, 2016

  Mr. KEATING. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Dudley Brown, a 
Plymouth, Massachusetts native who passed away on September 24, 2015 at 
the age of 88.
  A man truly devoted to the service of his country, Mr. Brown spent 
his life working to honor America both in and out of uniform. Mr. 
Brown, who served from 1944 to 1947 in World War II and from 1950 to 
1952 in the Korean war, was not content to sit back and rest upon his 
return to civilian life.
  Balancing his career as a market researcher and salesman around the 
country for three decades, Mr. Brown sustained a lifelong passion for 
studying the genealogy of his family and the history of this country. 
As a direct descendant to William Brewster, one of the original 
Mayflower pilgrims and a respected religious leader within Plymouth 
County, Mr. Brown was a proud member of the General

Society of Mayflower Descendants. In 2014, Mr. Brown received an award 
for 20 years of membership with the National Society of the Sons of the 
American Revolution, and also acted with admirable integrity as a 
Private 1st Class within Boston's Ancient and Honorable Artillery 
Company.
  In addition to his passion for family and American history, Mr. Brown 
was also an avid tennis player and enjoyed speed skating, biking and 
racing motorcycles as a young man. He is survived by his loving 
partner, three children, and four grandchildren. Known for his sense of 
humor and good cheer, Mr. Brown is sorely missed by his family and many 
friends.
  Mr. Speaker, I am proud to honor Dudley Brown's many achievements on 
the anniversary of his passing. I ask that my colleagues join me in 
recognizing his life and his service.
