                         Monday, July 24, 2006

  Mr. ETHERIDGE. Mr. Speaker, I rise this evening to join my colleagues 
in paying tribute to Tim Friedman on the occasion of his retirement 
from the House after 30 years of faithful service. Tim is a native of 
Lackawanna, NY, a suburb of Buffalo. He arrived in Washington in 1976 
and started his career in the House of Representatives on July 19, 1976 
under the patronage of the Hon. Dan Rostenkowski.
  He worked as a Doorkeeper under the Hon. James T. Molloy from 1976 to 
1982. In 1982 he transferred to the office of the House Sergeant at 
Arms. Tim was appointed as Assistant Manager of the House Democratic 
Cloakroom in 1985 by the Hon. Thomas P. O'Neill, Speaker of the House.
  Tim married Colleen Early in 2003. They are avid golfers and are 
building a home in Wallace, NC. I hope they have a splendid retirement 
in Down East, NC.
