                      IN MEMORY OF C. DONALD BRADY

                                 ______
                                 

                        HON. DENNIS J. KUCINICH

                                of ohio

                    in the house of representatives

                       Wednesday, October 3, 2001

  Mr. KUCINICH. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the memory of a 
great citizen, C. Donald Brady.
  Born in Connellsville, Pennsylvania, Mr. Brady was a truly selfless 
individual. In his spare time he enjoyed canoeing and fly-fishing, but 
it was his time that he dedicated to others that stands out.
  Mr. Brady passed away recently but left in his path a long 
established pattern of giving. After graduating from high school he 
gave to his country by joining the Navy and serving four years. Next he 
gave to his community, serving as a teacher after attending California 
(Pa.) State Teachers College and West Virginia University. Even after 
earning a bachelor's degree in education and a masters in education 
from these universities respectively, he continued to increase his 
knowledge by studying bacteriology at Indiana (Pa.) State Teachers 
College. He taught for six years at Firelands High School and then 
joined the faculty at North Olmsted High School in 1965. Upon retiring 
as a biology teacher in 1987 he continued his model of giving by 
rediscovering his youthful joy of playing the clarinet and becoming 
active in Dixieland music associations.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask you to join me in honoring the memory of C. Donald 
Brady.
