                  FAREWELL FROM HON. ROMANO L. MAZZOLI

  (Mr. MAZZOLI asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. MAZZOLI. Mr. Speaker, this is not technically the last day of the 
103d Congress; we will meet in November for the lame duck session on 
GATT, but I think this might be a propitious time for me to tell all my 
colleagues what a great privilege and honor it has been for me to serve 
as a Member of Congress. I will, as you know, not be returning in the 
104th Congress having decided last year to return to Kentucky and to 
take up a new life of one sort or another after this congressional 
life.
  But, I wanted all my friends to know, and you are all my friends, 
that your love and your support and your friendship over these years 
has been absolutely magnificent. I have appreciated it, my wife and my 
family have, and we will take away as we return to Kentucky the 
wonderful and warm feelings of this place and all of its people.
  Mr. Speaker, I have no idea exactly what the Lord has in mind for me 
for the future, but I hope it is something that will allow our paths to 
cross very often.
  I thank you, I love you, and may God shower His blessings on each and 
every one of you.
