TOM DAVIS\n\n                              of virginia\n\n                    in the house of representatives\n\n                       Friday, November 22, 2002\n\n  Mr. TOM DAVIS of Virginia. Mr. Speaker, I would like to take this\nopportunity to honor Mr. Bill Cole, an outstanding citizen of Northern\nVirginia.\n  Mr. Cole has completed an exceptional career that has positively\nimpacted our community. As a retired Army Officer with 28 years of\nservice, Mr. Cole's last assignment was with the Department of Defense\nin helicopter research and development. While holding a master's degree\nin public administration, Mr. Cole currently works for William W. Cole\n& Associates, a business consulting firm he formed in 1992. Mr. Cole\nhas also served as General Manager of Capital Lighting & Supply, Inc,\nan electrical distributor, for 18 years. Concurrently, he was co-owner\nand Vice President of Shannon Builders, a residential construction\ncompany, from 1978-1982.\n  Perhaps one of Mr. Cole's most important contributions to the\ncommunity was his service as President of the Occoquan Watershed\nCoalition, an all-volunteer organization that is committed to the\nprotection of ``The Downzoned Occoquan Watershed'' and the drinking\nwater that it provides. Mr. Cole formed the Occoquan Watershed\nCoalition in the fall of 1994 and on December 7, 1994, the coalition\nwas recognized as an official organization.\n  Bill Cole's efforts have motivated others to dedicate their time and\nenergy to improving quality of life for others. He is that rare\nindividual who cares more about doing good than getting credit.\n  Mr. Speaker, in closing, it is with great pleasure that I extend this\nrecognition to Mr. Bill Cole. His contributions to Virginia and his\ncommunity have been great. Virginia is proud to have such a\ndistinguished citizen in its professional and social community. I call\nupon my colleagues to join me in applauding him for all that he has\ndone.\n\n                          ____________________"]], "columns": ["granule_id", "date", "congress", "session", "volume", "issue", "title", "chamber", "granule_class", "sub_granule_class", "page_start", "page_end", "speakers", "bills", "citation", "full_text"], "primary_keys": ["granule_id"], "primary_key_values": ["CREC-2002-11-22-pt1-PgE2119-3"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.7573609473183751, "source": "Federal Register API & Regulations.gov API", "source_url": "https://www.federalregister.gov/developers/api/v1", "license": "Public Domain (U.S. Government data)", "license_url": "https://www.regulations.gov/faq"}
