                       Monday, September 13, 2004

  Mr. KUCINICH. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in honor and remembrance of 
Zachary Virgin, an angel of light and love, whose brief journey here 
brought joy and love to his mother and father, Shane and Joseph, and to 
everyone who held him, loved him, and gazed upon him.
  Forever perfect and innocent baby Zachary's message of giving and 
grace brought light and warmth into our world. He will live forever 
within the hearts and memories of his parents, and his song will be 
heard for all time.
  Mr. Speaker and Colleagues, please join me in honor and remembrance 
of Zachary Virgin, whose beautiful, brief life has become a miracle of 
life for others. We honor and recognize the love and courage of Shane 
and Joseph Virgin, loving parents of baby Zachary. We extend our 
condolences to you both, and to your extended family and friends, and 
we wish you strength and peace within your deep sorrow.
  An angel of heaven, baby Zachary will forever soar with a song of 
life and message of hope for other babies: A baby breathes with his 
breath; a baby sees with his eyes; a baby lives with his life. Baby 
Zachary is their guardian angel, he lives on through all of them, and 
he will never be forgotten. May his life, love, and memory forever 
bring you strength, comfort and peace.
