today I recognize the students of Sunset High School's Holocaust Studies class and their instructor, Mr. Irv Madnikoff. Their hard work and dedication in remembering the Holocaust through their class's exhibit ``Sunset of Our Memories'' should be commended. This amazing class is one of its kind in Florida and has brought to our community this important presentation so that we can always remember the brave victims of the most deplorable time in the world's history. Over the past 3 years, 9,000 people have visited Sunset High School's interactive exhibit. One visitor commented that it was the best exhibit, next to the one in Washington, D.C., that he had ever seen. I again want to express my sincere gratitude to Mr. Irv Madnikoff and his students at Miami's Sunset High School for taking an active role in keeping alive the memories of innocent Holocaust casualties.
