                        TRIBUTE TO DAVID SUSSMAN

 Mr. SMITH of New Hampshire. Mr. President, I rise today to pay 
tribute to David Sussman of Charlestown, NH, former professor at 
Holyoke Community College, for his outstanding service as a volunteer 
executive in Feodosia, Ukraine.
  David worked on a volunteer mission with the International Executive 
Service Corps, a nonprofit organization which sends retired Americans 
to assist businesses and private enterprises in the developing 
countries and the new emerging democracies of Central and Eastern 
Europe and the former Soviet Union.
  David assisted the Feodosia Institute of Management and Business, a 
business college, in developing plans for exchange of faculty and 
students with U.S. Colleges and for joint research.
  David, and his wife Claire, spent a month in the Ukraine. Their 
outstanding patriotic engagement provides active assistance for people 
in need and helps build strong ties of trust and respect between the 
Ukraine and America. David's mission aids at ending the cycle of 
dependency on foreign assistance.
  I commend David for his dedicated service and I am proud to represent 
him in the U.S. Senate.
