                        HONORING WIN ROCKEFELLER

  (Mr. SNYDER asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. SNYDER. Mr. Speaker, until the day he died last Sunday, 
Lieutenant Governor Win Rockefeller cared deeply about his family, did 
all he could for Arkansas, and loved America.
  My wife was formerly his associate pastor for 7 years at Pulaski 
Heights Methodist Church, and she shared with me today a couple of her 
favorite stories about Win. She said that here he was, one of America's 
richest men. When he was with the youth program as a father, as a 
member of the church, rather than fly up to Colorado and meet the youth 
group, he climbed on the bus as a chaperone and took the 16-hour ride 
with all the kids and teenagers up to Colorado on the ski trip.
  She also related to me when she left at the end of her 7 years at 
Pulaski Heights Methodist Church and was going through a lot of changes 
in her life, that the church had two different receptions which he 
attended to show his support and affection and concern for her.
  Lieutenant Governor Rockefeller was a genuine, caring man. Our 
thoughts are with his wonderful children and family.
