  Ms. CORRINE BROWN of Florida. Madam Speaker, I rise today on behalf 
of the constituents of the Third Congressional District of Florida as I 
pay tribute to the life of Dr. Emma Moran.
  There are those who pass this way and touch lives, and there are 
those who make lives better for having been in our midst. The depth and 
breath of the life of Dr. Emma Moran can be summed in one phrase--she 
loved, she cared and she taught us how to live through the giving of 
our talents.
  Dr. Moran was an educator, activist, advocate, and a believer in the 
sanctity and importance of education. She had this embracing 
personality that while in her presence she made you feel that your 
words and thoughts were important to her, and that she listened and 
cared. This great woman of faith, tenacity and boundless energy 
embodied the better qualities of human existence, and she demanded no 
less from each of us. Dr.
  Moran was and is a true inspiration.
  Rest now, my friend, for your work here is done and your life shall 
live on forever in each of us.
