“The Proverbs tell us that our good name is our most valuable possession on Earth, and by that measure Ralph Hall is truly one of the wealthiest men in America. He's earned the trust of his constituents over and over again, as he has earned the trust of his colleagues, because we know, his constituents know, that Ralph Hall always keeps his word, that Ralph Hall always does what's right for America. He does the right thing for the right reason on every occasion. And he understands that his service in Congress is for his fellow man. Just as he served us in uniform in our Armed Forces, Ralph serves here as he served as county judge, as he served as State senator for the benefit of Texas, for the benefit of America. It's an extraordinary privilege for me to serve with him, to look to Ralph Hall as a mentor, as a friend, as a colleague, as a fellow Texan, to honor him tonight, one of the great Americans, one of the great Texans ever to serve in the United States Congress, Ralph Hall. We honor and thank him for his service to the Nation and to the great State of Texas.”
