                                 ______
                                 

                        HON. DENNIS J. KUCINICH

                                of ohio

                    in the house of representatives

                       Monday, February 28, 2011

  Mr. KUCINICH. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in honor of Richard F. Coyne 
to acknowledge his receipt of the Walks of Life Award from the Irish 
American Archive Society.
  Richard is a valuable asset to the Cleveland community. Without him, 
Cleveland would not have one its most prestigious landmarks: the Great 
Lakes Science Center. Richard was chosen specifically to spearhead the 
construction of the Science Center twenty years ago. As a result of his 
know-how and expertise, the project was completed both on time and 
under budget. The Great Lakes Science Center is one of the largest 
interactive science museums in the country.
  Now retired from management duties at the Science Center, Richard 
continues to assist and advise other enterprises. He is an active 
member of the leadership board at the Cleveland Clinic's Glickman 
Urological and Kidney Institute and has been chairman of the endowment 
board at St. Ann Catholic Church.
  Mr. Speaker and colleagues, Cleveland, Ohio is blessed to have such 
an honorable and hardworking man as a member of its community. His 
dedication has vastly improved Cleveland and the city will forever be 
in Richard's debt.
