On the recordJuly 28, 1998
I think in the memory of these two outstanding men, we should all commit ourselves to love each other more, to be more civil, to hold this institution up in the way that they deserve. In memory of them, that we would, as a people, find some good in this and come together in an extraordinary and historic way. Mr. Speaker, I also wanted to come today to this floor and recognize a great ``Tennessee Volunteer,'' Senator Bill Frist, whose second nature was to help; to put himself in an awkward position as a physician, though to always put that patient first, regardless of who that patients is. A great Tennessean of whom we are all very proud, Senator Frist came where he was needed most and gave of himself in an extraordinary way.
