                          HON. LYNN C. WOOLSEY

                    in the house of representatives

                      Wednesday, February 23, 1994

  Ms. WOOLSEY. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to David R. 
Young of Sonoma, CA.
  I offer great thanks and heartfelt appreciation for Mr. Young's 
contribution to educating the children of Marin and Sonoma Counties 
about HIV, the virus that leads to AIDS.
  Living with the HIV and knowing only too well how the disease was 
robbing him of his days, David, with the full support of his life 
partner, Douglas Pinter, nevertheless sacrificed many of those precious 
remaining days to helping our children avoid becoming infected with 
HIV.
  While we may never know exactly how many children's lives David has 
saved, we know it is many, and even if he saved only one, we will be 
eternally grateful for his gift to our community. It is more precious 
than gold.
  Thank you, David. Godspeed and comfort in the days to come.
