                      PAYING TRIBUTE TO TIM TOOTEN

  (Mr. MFUME asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. MFUME. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to a friend, a 
great journalist, a humanitarian, and a man of faith, Rev. Dr. Tim 
Tooten.
  Tim was an admired journalist having spent more than 35 years 
reporting at Baltimore's WBAL-TV. He was a distinguished pastor at 
Harvest Christian Ministries and an accomplished writer.
  Tim was also an award-winning filmmaker, a documentary person who 
believed in reporting and sharing facts, as well as a cherished teacher 
to so many.
  He confronted life with the courage of his convictions and confronted 
death with the conviction of his faith.
  Our condolences across the Baltimore area go out to his wife, 
Charlene; his loving children; and his grandchildren during this time.
  We will miss you, my friend, but we will never ever forget you.
