Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize Retired Army Colonel Mike Ross and his selfless leadership with Veterans Villages of America. Colonel Ross is a combat veteran with 37 years of military service. He has received numerous awards, including the Legion of Merit, the Bronze Star, and the Meritorious Service Medal. Currently, Colonel Ross serves on the board of directors for Veterans Villages of America, where he operates a food pantry for veterans, military personnel, and their immediate family members. They also network in our communities to meet the needs of our veterans--and I mean all the needs of our veterans. Colonel Ross is indeed tireless. Although he is retired, he continues to give back to others, serve others, and work tirelessly for American military families and our veterans to ensure they are well cared for. Madam Speaker, I thank Colonel Ross for his outstanding service and dedication to our community and central Arkansas veterans. Recognizing Montine McNulty
