                     IN MEMORY OF GREGORY W. MOYER

 Mr. JEFFORDS. Mr. President, I rise today to pay tribute to 
the life of a young man who passed away unexpectedly on Saturday, 
December 2, 2000. Gregory W. Moyer was the nephew of my friend and 
former staffer Pat Morrissey. Greg was a 15-year-old basketball player, 
honor student, and community volunteer from Shawnee-on-Delaware, 
Pennsylvania. He collapsed during a high school basketball game, victim 
of an undetected heart defect. At six-foot-three-inches and 220 pounds, 
his classmates knew him as a ``gentle giant.'' Greg's Aunt Patricia 
says that, ``He could read hearts, young and old alike. He knew what 
was important.''
  Pat, please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you and your 
family.
