                 RECOGNIZING THE LEGACY OF JULI SPITZER

  (Ms. HAGEMAN asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. HAGEMAN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the legacy of my 
friend and a great Wyomingite, Juli Spitzer. Juli never met a stranger, 
and her life was defined by the love she had for her neighbors and the 
communities she called home in Sublette and Teton Counties.
  From the day Juli moved to Wyoming to attend the University of 
Wyoming, she embraced the romance of the West. She loved the open range 
and never tired of participating in the cowgirl life from baking bread 
to moving cattle. Juli was particularly fond of the natural beauty and 
wildlife we are blessed with in Wyoming.
  Her fondness for the West led Juli to work towards preserving the 
history and legacy of Wyoming, and Juli and her husband, Hort, were 
long-time supporters and active members of the Sublette County 
Historical Society and Jim Bridger League.
  Through their shared commitment to telling the history and stories of 
Wyoming, the Spitzers were influential in the inception and founding of 
Wyoming's Museum of the Mountain Man, and both Juli and Hort would 
later serve on the board of directors.
  On a personal note, Juli Spitzer was truly one of a kind with a 
personality as big as all outdoors.
  She will be dearly missed by her husband, Hort; her friends; her 
community; and all who knew her.
  We take comfort in knowing that her legacy will be remembered for 
generations by Wyomingites.
