                        HON. DENNIS J. KUCINICH

                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, July 23, 2002

  Mr. KUCINICH. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in honor and remembrance of 
June Allison McCormack, community and political activist, successful 
businesswoman, beloved mother, grandmother, and trusted friend.
  Mrs. McCormack was an extremely kind soul with a generous spirit, who 
was always looking for ways to help others. She traveled frequently to 
points across the globe, looking for ways to improve the environment 
for children living in impoverished areas.
  Mrs. McCormack donated her time and money to several worthy 
charitable organizations, and encouraged others to do so. Instead of 
accepting holiday and birthday gifts from families and friends, she 
requested that they donate to the charity of their choice.
  Besides her philanthropic work and commitment to volunteerism, Mrs. 
McCormack possessed a sharp sense for business, and successfully 
operated June McCormack Realty for 25 years, before retiring in the 
mid-eighties.
  Mr. Speaker, please join me in honor and remembrance of June Allison 
McCormack, beloved wife of the late Earl Patrick McCormack, devoted 
mother of four, and devoted grandmother of ten. Mrs. McCormack leaves 
behind a legacy of a generous spirit and devotion to helping others, 
especially children, and she will be greatly missed.
