         TRIBUTE TO MR. THOMAS MILLER OF MERIDIANVILLE, ALABAMA

                                 ______
                                 

                    HON. ROBERT E. (BUD) CRAMER, JR.

                               of alabama

                    in the house of representatives

                          Tuesday, May 2, 2000

  Mr. CRAMER. Mr. Speaker, I pay tribute to Mr. Thomas Miller of the 
Madison County Sheriffs Department. Mr. Miller goes above and beyond 
the duties of a public servant. Mr. Miller works the night shift with 
the Sheriff's Department, but still finds time to lead a group of Tiger 
Scouts.
  Mr. Miller has dedicated himself to this group of eager young men and 
has taught them by example about a life of citizenship and patriotism. 
The Tiger Scouts respect Mr. Miller and the job he does everyday to 
protect them and their families, often without proper recognition or 
gratitude.
  I wish to take this opportunity to thank him for his exemplary role 
as a leader in our community. Children in this country need more role 
models like Mr. Miller. I believe that this honor is fitting for 
someone who has given so much of himself for this community and this 
nation.
  I want to wish Mr. Miller and his family best wishes and express to 
him my gratitude on behalf of the United States Congress for his 
selfless work with the Tiger Scouts in our community.
