Well, thank you, Congressman Neugebauer. I think we have spent a good bit of our time extolling the virtues and honors of Chris Kyle and the other gentleman who was murdered, Mr. Littlefield. I want to take a minute to brag on you a little bit. Most people don't have a very high opinion of the U.S. Congress. Luckily, they think higher of their own Congressman. I think we should acknowledge how hard you've worked to help the family in this time of need, since you knew the family personally. You intervened with the Pentagon if the family wanted to try to bury Kyle at Arlington Cemetery. I know you've personally interacted with the Governor and his staff down in Austin, my staff, obviously, since they're my constituents. You've gone above and beyond the normal requirements of a Congressman to reach out and help because you feel that commitment personally and professionally, and I want to commend you. I also want to ask a question that I think you know the answer to. I have heard and read that an education fund has been established for Kyle's children. Is that true?
