                      INTRODUCTION OF RABBI DAVIS

                                 ______


                           HON. PETER DEUTSCH

                               of florida

                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, June 4, 1996

  Mr. DEUTSCH. Mr. Speaker, it gives me great pleasure to introduce to 
my colleagues, Rabbi Edward Davis, who will be giving today's opening 
prayer. Rabbi Davis leads the Young Israel Congregation of Hollywood, 
FL. Yet, Rabbi Davis is far more than just the spiritual leader of his 
south Florida congregation. After serving as Young Israel's rabbi for 
over 15 years, he has emerged as a well-respected leader throughout the 
community. He is a man that people can turn to in their time of need 
and someone people seek out to share in their joyous occasions. 
Moreover, he has become a dear friend whose ability to enrich people's 
religious experience is a treasure and a gift.
  Rabbi Edward Davis is married to Meira Davis and is the father of 
nine children. Mr. Speaker, I congratulate Rabbi Davis on all that he 
has accomplished and I ask my colleagues to join me in welcoming Rabbi 
Davis to the floor.
