Here is a shot of me reading the award being given to Crystal by Larry Ashcraft.

Larry, I must apologize for referring to you as 'John' Ashcroft. For some oddball reason I actually thought that was your name. Please forgive me. Maybe it was the crowd; they're not big government fans.
All in all it was a wonderful time. I will tell you all this. I have been with Crystal several times throughout the last month. We rummaged through the rubble of her house. We have discussed Al and the influnence he had on so many people. I watched her at the church during the memorial service and spent time with her afterward. She is one classy and somewhat tough lady. A Second Amendment Sister with great fortitude and a large Cross still to bear.
When she was given the award from THR was the first time I have seen her break down as she did. I was somewhat surprised by it.
After she composed herself she was presented a framed copy of an entry into the United States Congressional Record by the Honorable Congresswoman from Colorado, Marilyn Musgrave.
HONORING THE LIFE OF ALAN ALBERTUS

Mrs. MUSGRAVE. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the life of a true
American. Alan Albertus was a man that served his country in the U.S.
Air Force, as well as his community as an engineer. He was an
outdoorsman who had few peers, respecting the land God had blessed us
with while enjoying the challenges of Colorado's Rocky Mountains.
Alan gave much of his time to defending our constitutional right to
bear arms, and often instructed young families on firearms safety,
reloading, and firearms ballistics. He was active in politics--he
organized rallies, celebrated the Bill of Rights, and was a delegate to
conventions. Alan believed the best legacy he could leave to America
was that of freedom, and he worked hard to preserve that freedom.
Most importantly, Alan Albertus served his family and his Lord and
Savior, Jesus Christ. He will be missed.
