                 MOMENT OF SILENCE HONORING HERB KLEIN

  (Mr. PASCRELL asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. PASCRELL. Mr. Speaker, I stand with the New Jersey delegation. I 
rise today to mark the passing of my predecessor and my friend, 
Congressman Herb Klein. Herb only served one term in this institution, 
but he was a giant for north Jersey.
  Our communities are tight-knit, hardscrabble, fiercely loyal, and 
Herb embodied those qualities. It was Herb who laid the groundwork for 
what Passaic County is today. He helped build it.
  Herb Klein was a brilliant lawyer and remarkable public servant and a 
great human being. He was always accessible and always available.
  Over the years, I cannot count the number of times I called on Herb 
for his wisdom. I will miss his counsel, and I will miss his 
friendship.
  We send our love and admiration to Herb's family, Roger, and all the 
kids and friends, in their time of mourning.
  I ask the House to join me in a moment of silence in memory of Herb 
Klein.
