 HONORING 77 KENTUCKIANS WHO LOST THEIR LIVES TO HORRIFIC TORNADOES IN 
                             DECEMBER 2021

  (Mr. GUTHRIE asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. GUTHRIE. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor the 77 Kentuckians 
who lost their lives to the horrific tornadoes that devastated our 
Commonwealth this December. May we continue to lift up all of those who 
were affected by these storms and support the rebuilding of homes, 
businesses, and livelihoods.
  We lost 17 Kentuckians in my district, all in my home county of 
Warren County. We must ensure their memories are never forgotten, and I 
ask that Americans keep these families and these names in their 
prayers: Alisa Besic, Alma Besic, Elma Besic, Samantha Besic, Selmir 
Besic, Nariah Brown, Nolynn Brown, Nyles Brown, Nyssa Brown, Rachel 
Brown, Steven Brown, Terry Jayne, Say Meh, Cory Scott, Victoria Smith, 
Mae White, and Robert Williams, Jr.
  May they rest in peace.
