                        REMEMBERING BOB BILLINGS

                                 ______


                        HON. GERALD B.H. SOLOMON

                              of new york

                    in the house of representatives

                        Tuesday, October 17, 1995

  Mr. SOLOMON. Mr. Speaker, I would like to insert into the Record 
remarks I made on the passing of a truly great American, Bob Billings.
  Bob was an inspiration to me. President Reagan was also inspired by 
Bob's tireless efforts to promote family values and Christian ethics in 
Washington.
  We often met with Bob and discussed Christian education, moral 
issues, and the promotion of legislation to protect the rights of 
Christians to guide their children to believe in God.
  Bob's conviction and enthusiasm inspired us all as we sought to hold 
America to traditional values. Bob will be greatly missed. Those of us 
who love this country and want to see it survive will experience a 
large void at the passing of Bob Billings.
  Our prayers are with the entire Billings family at this time.
