                        HONORING KATHLEEN DALEY

  (Mr. TAKANO asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. TAKANO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the memory of Kathleen 
Daley--a friend, a trusted colleague, and a respected member of the 
Riverside community.
  I met Kathleen Daley when I was elected to the RCC board of trustees. 
As I got to know her, I realized that she and I could not be more 
different. She was a conservative Republican, and I am a progressive 
Democrat. She was a tax accountant, and, back then, I was still a 
public schoolteacher. But in spite of these differences, when we served 
on the board of trustees, we were always able to work together and put 
the needs of students first.
  I respected her for her expertise in finance. The board trusted her 
to chair the finance committee during her tenure. I admired her for her 
knowledge and experience, and so did my colleagues. We often 
unanimously supported her to be the presiding officer of the board. And 
I befriended her because of the dedicated person she was, because she 
always worked in the best interest of students.
  Riverside has lost a great public servant, and I join our community 
in remembering Kathleen Daley's passion for student success and 
recognizing her contributions.
