                   TRIBUTE TO MR. WALTER M. HAUK, JR.

 Mr. SANTORUM. Mr. President, the Knights of Columbus recently 
honored Mr. Walter Hauk, Jr. for his contributions as the State 
Advocate over the past two years. I rise today to recognize Mr. Hauk 
and to discuss some of his outstanding contributions to his community.
  A resident of Plymouth Township, Pennsylvania, Walter has taken a 
very active role in local affairs. Over the past 25 years, Walter has 
been a cornerstone of the Knights of Columbus. In fact, he has held all 
of the top offices in the organization. In addition, he has served as 
member of the Conshohocken Zoning Board, assisted in the Conshohocken 
Soap Box Derby, and served as a Scout Master. Furthermore, I would note 
that he earned a degree in accounting by attending evening classes at 
St. Joseph's University.
  By all accounts, Walter is a dedicated husband and father. He and his 
wife, Carol, were blessed with four children--two sons and two 
daughters. They are also proud grandparents.

  Mr. President, Walter has dedicated his life to his family and his 
community. I ask my colleagues to join me in extending the Senate's 
best wishes for continued success to Mr. Hauk and his family.
