                         TRIBUTE TO GARY HEUER

  (Mr. TRAFICANT asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. TRAFICANT. Mr. Speaker, I want to concur and associate myself 
with the remarks of my distinguished majority leader. I think the 
tribute that was made here is absolutely on target. Many times we hear 
a name and we do not put a name with a face, and Gary has helped so 
many of us.
  I just want to rise and say thank you, and I know when you pass, as 
you chronicled all of the highlights, you also did some traveling back 
and forth to Jack Brooks' office. Anybody that could stand Chairman 
Brooks has earned some distinction in our hearts. He was a tough 
customer.
  So Gary, on behalf of all of us on this side of the aisle, we 
appreciate all of the kind remarks, all of the advice and counsel you 
gave us, all of the little things that Members ask about, and I think 
it is fitting that the tribute was made by our majority leader. I want 
to associate myself with those remarks, and I want to say God bless you 
from all of us.
