 MOMENT OF SILENCE HONORING THE LIFE OF THE HONORABLE CLARENCE ``BUD'' 
                               BROWN, JR.

  (Mr. CHABOT asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. CHABOT. Mr. Speaker, I rise this evening along with several of my 
Ohio colleagues to honor the life of a great Ohio Congressman, Clarence 
``Bud'' Brown, Jr., who sadly passed away last Wednesday at the age of 
94.
  Congressman Brown represented the people of Ohio's Seventh District 
with great distinction from 1963 through 1983. As ranking member of the 
House Energy and Power Subcommittee, Congressman Brown crafted 
legislation to help his constituents and the American people overcome 
the 1970s energy crisis.
  Congressman Brown hailed from an impressive Ohio family. His father 
represented the Seventh District for 27 years in Congress. His son, 
Clarence ``Clancy'' Brown, III, is an actor who has appeared in many 
movies, including Shawshank Redemption, but is probably best known to 
American parents as the voice of Mr. Krabs in SpongeBob SquarePants; 
and Congressman Brown's nephew, Zac Haines, currently serves on Miami 
University of Ohio's board of trustees.
  Mr. Speaker, I respectfully request that all Members keep Congressman 
Brown's family and loved ones in their prayers as they mourn this 
profound loss. I would ask for a moment of silence in his honor.
