                        TRIBUTE TO LOU SEPERSKY

                                 ______


                          HON. JERROLD NADLER

                              of new york

                    in the house of representatives

                          Tuesday, May 2, 1995
  Mr. NADLER. Mr. Speaker, on May 1, Community Board No. 6 of Manhattan 
honored Louis Sepersky, its immediate past chair. It is a fitting 
tribute to an outstanding New Yorker who has dedicated his life to 
service to, and advocacy for, his community at the grassroots level.
  I have known Lou Sepersky for more than 30 years, and I am proud to 
call him a friend and to have worked with him as a colleague in the 
many challenges we shared. In addition to his serving as chair of 
Community Board No. 6, Lou's many positions of leadership at the local 
and national level include service as a district leader on Manhattan's 
East Side and as New York City chapter president of Americans for 
Democratic Action.
  Mr. Speaker, too often we forget that this Nation was built through 
the achievements of citizens who exhibited uncommon character, 
determination, and ability to bring about change for the betterment of 
their fellow citizens. Lou Sepersky is one such outstanding citizen.
  It is most fitting that Community Board No. 6 should honor Lou 
Sepersky, and that we honor him and Americans like him, who care enough 
to make a difference.
