                         TRIBUTE TO FAYE BROWN

  Mr. HEFLIN. Mr. President, I want to take a moment to commend and 
congratulate Faye Brown, who will be retiring from the bankruptcy 
administrator's office in Birmingham at the end of this month. She has 
been a fixture at the bankruptcy court and administrator's office for 
many years.
  Faye graduated from Dale County High School in Ozark, AL; in 1950 and 
attended Howard College, now Samford University, graduating in 1954. 
From 1966 to 1971, she served as the personal secretary to Judge Robert 
S. Vance. In 1972, she was appointed deputy clerk for the bankruptcy 
court.
  From 1979 to 1985, Faye was the secretary to Judge Stephen B. 
Coleman, Chief Judge of the United States Bankruptcy Court for the 
Northern District of Alabama. In 1985, after Judge Coleman's 
retirement, she became the asset closing clerk for the bankruptcy 
clerk's office, serving there for the next 7 years. In 1992, she 
obtained her current position and the one from which she is retiring 
this month, that of bankruptcy analyst.
  Faye Brown has done an outstanding job over the many years of her 
career. In many ways, she is the institutional memory of her office, 
and knows the in's and out's of the bankruptcy court as well as anyone, 
and her expertise and dedication will be sorely missed. I congratulate 
her for a job well done and wish her all the best for a long, healthy, 
and happy retirement. It is surely well-earned.
