“Mr. Speaker, this past Sunday we lost in Indiana another man by the name of Frank. A couple of months ago we lost our Governor, Frank O'Bannon, and this past Sunday, we have lost Frank McCloskey. Frank was born on June 12, 1939, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He graduated from Bishop Kendrick High School in Norristown, Pennsylvania in 1957, and got his undergraduate degree at Indiana University in 1968, his law degree at Indiana University in 1971. He served in the United States Air Force from 1957 until 1961. He was a newspaper reporter from 1961 to 1968. Admitted to the Indiana bar in 1971. He became mayor of the great city of Bloomington, Indiana for 10 years, from 1972 until 1982. He was elected at the ripe old age of 32 years of age. He was in the U.S. Congress from the 8th District from 1983 until 1995. He was an attorney, he was a good guy, and we are going to miss him. We are losing too many Franks in Indiana. Frank was a special guy.”
