                     THE RETIREMENT OF JEANNE ROBY

  Mr. MOYNIHAN. Mr. President, I rise today to recognize an individual 
who has very ably served the Senate Finance Committee and the Congress 
for the past quarter century. Earlier this month, during the recess 
period, Jeanne Roby retired from the staff of the Finance Committee. I 
know that everyone who worked with Jeanne will miss her greatly.
  Jeanne joined the Finance Committee staff in 1971, after working for 
3\1/2\ years at the Committee on Banking and Currency in the other 
body. At Finance, she served in various capacities, most recently 
handling administrative matters for the tax division. Jeanne's 
professionalism, dedication to duty and hard work were unsurpassed. She 
made a major contribution in accomplishing the work of the committee. 
Having served under five Finance chairmen, Jeanne also became an 
important source of the institutional memory of the committee. Her 
kindness, thoughtfulness, and wonderful sense of humor made her a joy 
to work with.
  Jeanne leaves us for a part-year post with the Maryland General 
Assembly. This will give her more time to be with her husband Roby, for 
boating on the Chesapeake, and, of course, for her beloved Scottish 
Terrier Watson.
  On behalf of the Finance Committee, I would like to thank Jeanne Roby 
for over 22 years of hard work, and to wish her all the best in the 
coming years. I hope she will remember fondly her days with us. We will 
all certainly miss her.
