Tom Wickham, for those who are watching, is a wonderful example of the extraordinary patriotism, loyalty, and talent that has contributed to this House's operation by all of our staff. He is one of the best, but we have the best. Tom, I know you treated all the staff, certainly on my staff--and I know all the staff--with great respect because you knew how important they were. We all know how important you have been to the operations of this House. I don't know what you will be doing. But assuming that you, at this young age of yours--I told you that you were way too young for us to let you go, but you are going--you will be doing other things, and you will bring great value to whatever enterprise you pursue. We have been blessed for a quarter of a century with your service, and we thank you for that service. Godspeed.
