Mr. Speaker. on November 15th. 2005. America lost one of its greatest entrepreneurs. the great Preston Robert "Bob" Tisch. the former Postmaster General and owner of the New York Giants Football Club. Bob Tisch grew up in Bensonhurst. Brooklyn. to middleclass parents who had emigrated from Russia. He had a vision that anyone could succeed in life if they worked hard enough to achieve it. He once mentioned that "perseverance is at the heart of meeting any challenge." This is a motto he would live by for the rest of his life. In 1943 Bob Tisch joined the U.S. Army and fought in World War I1.
