[Congressional Record (Bound Edition), Volume 154 (2008), Part 12] [Extensions of Remarks] [Page 17405] [From the U.S. Government Publishing Office, www.gpo.gov]HAPPY BIRTHDAY COE HAMLING ______ HON. TOM PRICE of georgia in the house of representatives Wednesday, July 30, 2008 Mr. PRICE of Georgia. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor a dear friend and a special American on the occasion of his 90th birthday. Worthy Coe Hamling was born on August 2, 1918 on the plains of South Dakota. Armed with nothing more than the dogged determination, rugged individualism and unbending family loyalty forged by a birth attended only by his mother and God, Coe embodies the greatest qualities of America. It was at Hamlyn University in Minnesota that he met his loving wife of 66 years, Betty. His embrace of freedom, family, and the sanctity of every human being is balanced by his unyielding sense of responsibility and self-reliance. Living in Roswell, GA, Coe proudly anchors a family of five children, ten grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren. Madam Speaker, I know the entire House of Representatives joins me in extending a hearty, happy 90th birthday to Coe Hamling--an American treasure! ____________________
