Once again I stand as a member of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform to join my colleagues in the consideration of H.R. 5395, which would rename the post office facility at 11001 Dunklin Drive in St. Louis, Missouri, after a true hero of mine: my beloved father, the Honorable William ``Bill'' Clay, Sr. Throughout my lifetime I have been blessed to experience and witness firsthand my father's commitment to his community and his country. Congressman Clay served Missouri's First Congressional District for 32 years from 1968 to 2000. Born and raised in St. Louis, Missouri, Bill Clay served in the U.S. Army from 1953 to 1955.
