                         REMEMBERING GWEN IFILL

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, I would like to say just a few words about 
Gwen Ifill. It really was too bad that she died at age 61. She was a 
woman who broke barriers. Every step of her life was something new and 
inspirational for those around her.
  I watch the ``NewsHour'' as often as I can, and I will miss her. I 
thought she had such a fine way of presenting herself in the news that 
she reported. Every night she would do the nightly review. She was 
really a good person, and I will miss her. I think we all will.
