                       TRIBUTE TO BARRY SULLIVAN

                                 ______
                                 

                               speech of

                          HON. JOHN D. DINGELL

                              of michigan

                    in the house of representatives

                      Wednesday, November 20, 2013

  Mr. DINGELL. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in honor of Barry Sullivan, 
Director of the Democratic Cloakroom, who has announced his plans to 
retire after decades of service here in the House. His presence in this 
chamber and his years of hard work on behalf of House Democrats will be 
sorely missed. I have been blessed to be here throughout Barry's career 
and to see first-hand his contribution to this body and to our Nation. 
I was honored to work alongside Congressman Joseph Moakley, who served 
as a mentor to Barry and helped advance his career. He's a proud son of 
South Boston, and I wish him and his family the absolute best for a 
long and happy retirement. Thank you, Barry, for your 33 years of 
service on behalf of and for the people of our great Nation. God bless 
you.
