Today I come before the House of Representatives to honor and recognize the sacrifice of Sergeant Bishop Evans of the Texas National Guard, age 22, of Arlington, Texas. Sergeant Evans gave his life to save two others. He exemplifies the spirit of service and sacrifice that those who volunteer to serve in our Nation's military personify. He died an American hero. He was a light in times of darkness. May God bless his family. Madam Speaker, at this time I request a moment of silence to honor the life of Sergeant Bishop Evans. ____________________
