E2216 | Congressional Record, Volume 156 Issue 172 (Tuesday, December 21, 2010) [Congressional Record Volume 156, Number 172 (Tuesday, December 21, 2010)] [Extensions of Remarks] [Page E2216] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [www.gpo.gov] HONORING FERNANDO JOSE MOLLEDA RAMIREZ ______ HON. THOMAS S.P. PERRIELLO of virginia in the house of representatives Tuesday, December 21, 2010 Mr. PERRIELLO. Madam Speaker, I rise today in honor of Fernando Jose Molleda Ramirez, who was with us from December 21, 1976 through August 22, 2008. Beloved son of Oscar and Elia Molleda; loving brother to Diego and Diana. You are dearly missed by your family and friends for the profound way you touched our lives and always sought to bring out the best in us. Your efforts will be long remembered and will continue to drive us in the future to exceed our expectations of what we are capable of accomplishing. I have only slipped away into the next room. Whatsoever we were to each other, that we are still. Call me by my old familiar name, speak to me in the easy way which you always used to. Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes we enjoyed together. Play, smile, think of me, pray for me. Let my name be the household word that it always was. Let it be spoken without effort. Life means all that it has ever meant. It is the same as it ever was, there is absolutely unbroken continuity. Why should I be out of your mind because I am out of your sight? I am but waiting for you, for an interval, somewhere very near, just around the corner. All is well. Nothing is past, nothing is lost. One brief moment and all will be as it was before, only better, infinitely happier and forever--we will be one with God. ____________________ |
