                    TRIBUTE TO REVEREND CLEVE MINTER

  (Mr. DANNY K. DAVIS of Illinois asked and was given permission to 
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. DANNY K. DAVIS of Illinois. Mr. Speaker, I rise to pay tribute to 
Reverend Cleve Minter, a member of my community, who passed away a few 
days ago.
  Reverend Minter was pastor of the New Mt. Vernon Baptist Church, but 
also was a great gospel singer, who along with three of his friends--
Reverend John Parker, Reverend Mac McCullum, and Reverend William 
Jenkins--were known fondly as the four heavyweights, and it didn't mean 
anything to do with size.
  I express condolences to his family and church.
