I would like to amplify my formal statement with a few personal observations. The chairman has kindly indicated some of the history of Senator Fong. It is interesting when I look down and see the word Hiram L. Fong. because he is so much of the history of Hawaii. we all think of him as Senator Fong. As has been noted. he was the seventh of 11 children of an immigrant family. If there was ever a story of Hawaii. of our rainbow people and our aloha spirit. it is Hiram Fong. He worked a lot of jobs and worked his way through school and did very. very -well.
