Mr. Speaker. on Monday. May 12. Mrs. Claire A. Brown passed away at the age of 79. With her death. the great County of Nassau has lost one of its most beloved ladies. "Kitty." as she was affectionately called. was the first person to call on us. April 2. 1921. the day after my family emigrated to the United States. She was our devoted neighbor for almost 25 years. She encouraged my interest in government and politics. She watched me like a mother hen up to the time she failed in health. Kitty was the pillar of the Republican Party in those days and yet she found time to be of help. in every way. to her fellow man.
