                        REMEMBERING DALE BUMPERS

  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, let me again welcome all of our 
colleagues back. I think they will join me in remembering former 
Senator Dale Bumpers, who passed away over the holidays.
  Some called Dale Bumpers an improbable Senator. Others have remarked 
on his humor and wit. But what is clear about this former Senate 
colleague is that he was larger than life in many ways. I am sure his 
name will continue to be remembered by Arkansans for many years to 
come. The Senate sends its condolences to the family and friends 
Senator Bumpers leaves behind.
