            HONORING THE LIFE AND LEGACY OF WALTER DARTLAND

                                  _____
                                 

                           HON. NEAL P. DUNN

                               of florida

                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, March 8, 2018

  Mr. DUNN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the life and legacy of 
Walter Dartland--a leader in Florida who recently lost his battle with 
lymphoma. He was a gentleman and an honest man.
  Throughout his life, Walter worked to help people, whether that be in 
the Marine Corps, or as a university professor back home in Florida, he 
always gave of himself to better the lives of others.
  Walter was an attorney by trade, and spent much of his life fighting 
for the ``little guy'' in consumer advocacy. In fact, one of his 
greatest achievements was Florida's Lemon Law--protecting car buyers 
across the state from vehicles that were brand new, but faulty.
  Walter dedicated his life to giving a voice to those who needed it 
most. Aside from advocacy, his wife of 36 years Diana, children, and 
grandchildren were the greatest joys in his life.
  Mr. Speaker, please join me in honoring the memory of Walter 
Dartland. He was a class act and a sincere advocate for the very best 
of America. Semper Fi.
