                    in the house of representatives

                          Friday, May 30, 1997

  Mr. PASCRELL. Mr. Speaker, I would like to call to your attention the 
deeds of one of my closest friends, Adolph J. Galluccio of Wyckoff, NJ. 
Adolph is being honored tonight as Man of the Year by the House of 
Compassion. It is only fitting that the House of Compassion honor 
Adolph, for he epitomizes caring and generosity of spirit.
  He was born and raised in Paterson and still considers it home. 
Adolph practices law in Paterson, is involved in charitable 
organizations in Paterson, and he has given his heart and soul to 
Paterson.
  Adolph continually touches the lives of others. Whether he is 
performing stand-up comedy to benefit charity or giving turkeys he 
personally buys for the needy, Adolph unceasingly and enthusiastically 
keeps giving to his community.
  Adolph has been a parishioner of Blessed Sacrament R.C. Church in 
Paterson for more than 40 years. He has been a member on the original 
board of directors for Eva's Kitchen and has served on the board of 
trustees for Paterson Catholic High School.
  Professionally, Adolph Galluccio is well-respected as one of the best 
criminal attorneys in New Jersey. He graduated from Seton Hall Law 
School in 1964 and received the Bureau of National Affairs award. He is 
admitted to the New Jersey, U.S. District, and U.S. Supreme Court.
  Adolph continues to emphasize the importance of education and serves 
as a resource for the next generation. He is a regular Career Day 
speaker and occasional guest lecturer at both Paterson Catholic High 
School and Ramapo High School.
  Adolph and his wife Dorothy have four children, Michael, Terry Lynne, 
Karen, and Mark, and seven grandchildren.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask that you join me, our colleagues, Adolph's family 
and friends in recognizing the outstanding and invaluable service to 
the community of Adolph J. Galluccio.
