              PASSING OF FORMER REPRESENTATIVE GENE SNYDER

  (Mr. ROGERS of Kentucky asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute.)
  Mr. ROGERS of Kentucky. Mr. Speaker, I have the sad duty as the dean 
of the Kentucky delegation to inform the Members of the passing of our 
former colleague from Kentucky's Fourth District, Gene Snyder, who 
served some 20 years in this body until he retired in 1986. He passed 
away on February 16 of this year in Florida. His funeral and interment 
in Louisville took place last Saturday.
  For those who would desire, there will be a Special Order taken out 
by his successor in that district, Geoff Davis, tonight around 8:45. If 
you would like to participate in the Special Order, time will be 
available.
