                         HON. DENVER RIGGLEMAN

                    in the house of representatives

                         Monday, July 22, 2019

  Mr. RIGGLEMAN. Madam Speaker, our hearts are heavy as we mourn the 
loss of Dr. Suzanne Eaton, an American biologist who was murdered in 
Greece on July 2nd. Dr. Eaton worked at the Max Planck Institute at 
Dresden University in Germany, where she was a leader in the field of 
molecular biology. Her colleagues described her as a woman with an 
insatiable curiosity and a humble, loving heart.
  The legacy she leaves behind is not one of sorrow. Instead, it is a 
legacy of discovery. Dr. Eaton's work advanced our understanding of the 
building blocks of life, and in doing so, provided an invaluable 
contribution to the understanding of humankind. For this, and for her, 
we are grateful.
  Today, it is my hope that we can remember here in this chamber her 
work, her life, and her legacy.
