[Congressional Record Volume 164, Number 132 (Tuesday, August 7, 2018)] [Extensions of Remarks] [Page E1130] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [www.gpo.gov] IN HONOR OF KEN ROOS, VICE PRESIDENT OF THE LOCAL 1984 SERVICE EMPLOYEES INTERNATIONAL UNION ______ HON. ANN M. KUSTER of new hampshire in the house of representatives Tuesday, August 7, 2018 Ms. KUSTER of New Hampshire. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor and remember the life of Ken Roos, the beloved first vice president of SEIU Local 1984 in New Hampshire. A passionate activist, humanitarian, and volunteer, Ken was known to love a good protest and dedicated himself to social and economic justice through countless amounts of service to help hardworking Granite State men and women. Through his career in public service, Ken promoted the health, safety, and well-being of the citizens of New Hampshire. His volunteer work with the Red Cross improved families' lives after difficult times such as 9/11, New Hampshire home fires, and Hurricane Katrina. Ken literally gave a part of himself to those whose lives he touched, donating hundreds of pints of blood throughout his life. Ken was a staunch advocate for working families and organized labor, advocating for many whose voices didn't always have a seat at the table. On behalf of people across New Hampshire's Second Congressional District, I express my profound gratitude for Ken and his many years of devoted service to the Granite State. He will be greatly missed, but his memory will live on through the kindness of everyone he touched and the lasting impact of the causes for which he fought. I am honored to recognize Ken, and I send my condolences to his family. May he rest in peace. ____________________
