                      REMEMBERING JAMES T. MOLLOY

  (Mr. ENGEL asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. ENGEL. Mr. Speaker, it is my sad duty to report the passing of a 
former officer of this House, doorkeeper James T. Molloy.
  Jim, as he was known to so many, served as doorkeeper for 20 years, 
when I first came to Congress from 1974 to 1994. He was known 
throughout the world for his distinctive introduction of the President 
and heads of State to Congress. He is the one who would always yell: 
Ladies and gentlemen, the President of the United States.
  Jim, a native of Buffalo, New York, was a graduate of Canisius 
College and worked as a fireman and schoolteacher before coming to 
Washington at the invitation of Congressman John Rooney of New York. He 
leaves his beloved wife, Roseann, and his daughter, Amy.
  We will all miss him. We all remember him, and we all loved him.
