                     TRIBUTE TO THE SENATE CHAPLAIN

  Mr. CRAIG. Mr. President, before I respond to the chairman of the 
Energy and Natural Resources Committee and discuss the merit or lack of 
merit of S. 21, let me for a moment recognize the Senate Chaplain, 
Richard Halverson, who I have had the privilege in my short tenure here 
in the Senate to get to know in a very personal and loving way.
  I say that because he has become a very important person in my life 
and the life of my wife and our family, having just a few years ago 
this month performed the marriage of our daughter on the patio of her 
home here in Virginia.
  And to you, Dr. Halverson, we have always appreciated your message, 
your fellowship. And we will miss you.
  Mr. JOHNSTON. Mr. President, will the Senator yield?
  Mr. CRAIG. I am happy to yield.
  Mr. JOHNSTON. Mr. President, I associate myself with the remarks of 
the distinguished Senator from Idaho in wishing Dr. Halverson the best 
and in telling him how much his ministry has meant not just to this 
body but to the Nation. We will dearly miss Dr. Halverson.
