Reclaiming my time, the gentlewoman referred to having been given the opportunity to attend the funeral of the great Nelson Mandela. The Speaker actually made it possible for me to also go on a bipartisan delegation to the funeral of Pope John Paul II, and it was one of those experiences that is kind of a once-in-a-lifetime thing. It was a sad occasion, but nonetheless one that was very inspirational for me and a lot of other Members who went as well. I now yield to the gentleman from Ohio (Mr. Stivers).
