                     TRIBUTE TO PEGGY L. GREENBERG

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, I rise today to recognize the extraordinary 
work of Peggy L. Greenberg, director of the Office of Education and 
Training, who is retiring at the end of this month after 11 years. 
Peggy has been responsible for the training and development of all 
Senate staff in both the Washington, DC, office and all the Senate 
State offices. Her department offers programs in a wide variety of 
areas including general professional development, management and 
leadership development, legislative information and technical computer 
skills training.
  After earning her undergraduate degree in nursing from Southwestern 
Louisiana, Ms. Greenberg moved from nursing in Louisiana to 
Massachusetts, where she was a pediatric nurse. She eventually became 
the director of nursing inservice education and later the director of 
education for all of Kennedy Memorial Hospital in Boston. During that 
time, she earned a master's degree in adult and continuing education 
from Boston University.
  Peggy was the director of Organization Effectiveness and Performance 
Consulting for Med Star Physician Partners and then a director of 
learning and organization development for Kaiser Permanente of the Mid-
Atlantic States. She was recognized in the Kaiser Permanente 
organization nationwide as a leader in the training and organization 
development area.
  Peggy Greenberg has been a key contributor to improving the 
effectiveness and efficiency of Senate staff. We have all benefited 
from her professional and personal commitment to improving every aspect 
of or our individual and organizational development. The Senate has 
been fortunate to have someone with her knowledge and experience.
  The Senate community will miss Peggy, and wishes her well as she 
enjoys long and adventurous bike rides with her husband, Brian and 
continues indulging her love of tap dancing.
