                      TRIBUTE TO MR. SHAUN HEENAN

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. BRIAN HIGGINS

                              of new york

                    in the house of representatives

                       Tuesday, December 4, 2007

  Mr. HIGGINS. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor Mr. Shaun Heenan of 
the city of Dunkirk, New York, for his recent election as a member of 
the Chautauqua County Legislature. Following a close election victory 
on November 7, Mr. Heenan will represent the second district in the 
Legislature beginning January 1, 2008.
  The campaign trail is a difficult path to take. Any person with a 
dream may enter but only a few are able to reach the end. Mr. Heenan 
traveled that path with his head held high and a smile on his face the 
entire way. I have no doubt that his kind demeanor left a lasting 
impression on the voters of Chautauqua County.
  Chautauqua County is blessed to have such strong candidates with a 
desire to make this county the wonderful place we all know it can be. 
Mr. Heenan is one of those people, and that is why, Madam Speaker, I 
rise to honor him today.
