             HONORING THE LIFE AND LEGACY OF SUZANNE MURRAY

  (Mr. MAGAZINER asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. MAGAZINER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the life and legacy 
of Suzanne Murray, a humanitarian and philanthropist who made it her 
life's work to advocate for women's education.
  Born in Providence, Sue was an accomplished student who attended 
Henry Barnard School, the Lincoln School, and Radcliffe College, where 
she discovered a passion for education and found the love of her life, 
Terry Murray.
  The Murrays settled in Warwick and later Narragansett, raising five 
children.
  Sue devoted her time giving back to her alma maters, serving as chair 
of the board of the Lincoln School and as a trustee at Radcliffe, among 
many other leadership positions.
  In 2003, Lincoln named its middle school the Murray Middle School in 
her honor.
  In 1997, Sue and Terry cofounded the Murray Family Charitable 
Foundation to support education, healthcare, and the arts in southern 
New England. She assisted in the founding of Sophia Academy, a middle 
school in Providence for girls. Her work to expand access to education, 
particularly for young women, has made a difference in countless lives 
across Rhode Island and beyond.
  I join Sue's family and loved ones in celebrating her remarkable 
life.
