                          HON. GARY G. MILLER

                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, May 23, 2001

  Mr. GARY MILLER of California. Mr. Speaker, it is with heartfelt joy 
that I rise to offer my best wishes for the upcoming marriage of Steve 
Howell and Kyra Fishbeck.
  Steve Howell has worked in my Capitol Office for approximately a year 
and a half. During this time, I have witnessed his great love for Kyra. 
It is obvious to anyone who knows Steve that his bride-to-be, Kyra, is 
the true joy in his life.
  On Saturday, Steve and Kyra will take their wedding vows, pledging to 
love one another for the rest of their lives. These are words that 
should not be uttered lightly or taken without serious thought and 
consideration. However, I know that Steve and Kyra have prepared for 
this moment and are anxiously anticipating this special day.
  Having been married to my lovely bride for 28 years, I know that 
marriage is a wonderful institution. It is my hope that Steve and Kyra 
will be a blessing to one another, helpmates in all aspects of life, 
and forever cognizant of the love they feel today.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask this 107th Congress to join me in congratulating 
Steven Howell on having found the woman of his dreams and wishing this 
young couple a lifetime of happiness together.
