                        HON. THOMAS M. REYNOLDS

                    in the house of representatives

                         Friday, June 25, 1999

  Mr. REYNOLDS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor one of my 
community's most distinguished broadcast journalists upon the occasion 
of his departure as an anchor and reporter at WKBW-TV in Buffalo, New 
York.
  A graduate of Canisius College and the State University of New York 
at Buffalo School of Law, Steve Boyd began his broadcasting career at 
KOTA-TV in Rapid City, South Dakota. A Buffalo area native, Steve 
joined the staff of WKBW-TV in 1989.
  During his career, Steve has been the recipient of a number of honors 
and recognitions, including awards from the New York State Broadcasters 
Association; the Associated Press of New York state; and the Society of 
Professional Journalists. Steve also garnered a New York State Emmy 
nomination.
  Steve is departing the field of broadcast journalism to begin a new 
career in the field of law; and as his friends and colleagues join him 
this evening to wish him success, I ask, Mr. Speaker, that this House 
join them in extending to Steve Boyd our sincerest best wishes.
