                           IN MEMORY OF 9/11

  (Ms. HANABUSA asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Ms. HANABUSA. We all probably remember where we were when we learned 
about 9/11. We all probably had someone who came to mind immediately 
when we watched the horrific attacks on this Nation. For me, I thought 
of my friend General Eikenberry, who was at the Pentagon, on the side 
that the plane crashed into.
  Though Hawaii is the State farthest away from the east coast, we were 
also touched. We knew of at least nine who had ties to our State who 
died on 9/11, and I want to honor them by reading their names: Georgine 
Corrigan, Richard Keane, Maile Hale, Ric Yee, Patti Colodner, David 
Laychak, Christine Snyder, Heather Ho. Heather is someone special to 
me. Her grandfather actually built the town that I grew up in.
  We must also honor the brave men and women in uniform who gave their 
lives to this country in the wars following 9/11. Madam Speaker, we 
must never forget, and this country must never forget.
