Wednesday, January 6, 2016 No. 4X HOUSE JOURNAL No. 1 Wednesday, January 6, 2016 This day, January 6, 2016, the first Wednesday following the first Tuesday in January, being the day desig- nated by the Constitution (Art. 3rd, Part 2nd) for assembling of the second-year session of the 164th General Court of the State of New Hampshire, at the Capitol in the City of Concord, the Speaker convened the 2016 House of Representatives and called the session to order at 10:00 a.m. Her Excellency, Governor Margaret Wood Hassan, joined the Speaker on the rostrum for the day’s opening ceremonies. Prayer was offered by House Chaplain, Reverend Kate Atkinson, Rector of St. Paul’s Church in Concord. Almighty God, You have the power to renew and restore; You inspire hope and optimism as You bring us through the seasons to the start of this New Year. We pray in faith that You will give fresh wisdom and purpose to this gathering, that each member of this house would be keenly aware of the importance of the decisions made here, and how they affect the people we serve in New Hampshire and the wider world. And, as we consider those many people who are so precious to You, we pray for our colleagues and friends who are unable to be with us due to illness and restricted mobility, and for those members who are struggling in their daily lives. Please bless, heal and strengthen all who are in particular need. We remember especially today Laura Arsenault who passed unexpectedly from this world on Christmas night. We give thanks for Laura, for her years of dedicated service in this place, and for the ways she touched so many lives. We pray that You would give comfort to her family and friends, and that memories of Laura - and all those we love but see no longer - will continue to delight and inspire us throughout the cycles of seasons and years to come. Amen. REMARKS BY THE SPEAKER At this time I would like the House to join me in remembering Laura Arsenault. Laura was a 28 year member of the staff in the Office of Legislative Services and served the members of the General Court with dedication and integrity during that time. Laura always stood ready to assist her coworkers in the office and throughout the branch and had an infectious laugh and personality that will be missed by everyone who knew her. She leaves behind a family she loved and adored and she will be remembered fondly by all of us in the General Court. Please join me in a moment of silence for Laura Arsenault. MOMENT OF SILENCE A moment of silence was observed in honor and in memory of Laura Arsenault, a 28 year staff member of the Office of Legislative Services. Rep. Ohm, member from Nashua, led the Pledge of Allegiance. The National Anthem was sung by Catherine Martinez of Epsom. COMMUNICATION Email dated December 14, 2015 To Paul C.
