 TRIBUTE TO BOB LIVINGSTON, REPRESENTATIVE FROM THE FIRST DISTRICT OF 
                               LOUISIANA

                                 ______
                                 

                               speech of

                          HON. JOHN D. DINGELL

                              of michigan

                    in the house of representatives

                       Tuesday, February 23, 1999

  Mr. DINGELL. Mr. Speaker, I rise this evening to pay tribute to a 
colleague who has built a fine legacy of accomplishment as an adept and 
effective legislator--and leader--of this institution in which we all 
are honored to serve. Bob Livingston's leaving leaves a void that is 
not easily filled, as his colleagues from Louisiana have attested 
tonight. I wish Bob and Bonnie all the best as they embark on their new 
life, and am certain that Bob will continue to contribute to the public 
interest in the future.
  Bob, you will definitely be missed here, and as you leave Congress, 
you should take pride in your record of accomplishment for the State of 
Louisiana and the Nation. Good luck to you.
