I rise in strong support for H.R. 432a bill to designate the NorthSouth Center as the Dante B. Fascell NorthSouth Center. This legislation is a fitting tribute to a man who devoted his life toward promoting cultural understanding throughout the world. South Florida was deeply saddened to learn of Dantes passing on November 28. 1998. Dante. the son of Italian immigrants and a World War II veteran. became a legend in South Florida during his 38year career in Congress. He is remembered as a powerful. yet kind political figure who left an enduring mark on the Everglades. the Florida Keys. and world affairs. An advisor to eight Presidents.
