On the recordJune 17, 1997
I am not only the one who comes at the end of the line in talking about John Myers but I am also the one who has lived with the tremendous honor but also the tremendous responsibility of being his successor in the Congress. I told folks back home as we campaigned through 13 counties in western Indiana that I never ran into any community where I could not find someone whose life had been touched by John Myers and the things that he had done on their behalf or on behalf of their community. And then I come to Washington thinking I finally escaped that and I run into folks here who all have John Myers' stories about ways he has helped them both personally and professionally.
