Congressional Record, Volume 170 Issue 183 (Tuesday, December 10, 2024) [Congressional Record Volume 170, Number 183 (Tuesday, December 10, 2024)] [House] [Page H6548] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] {time} 1215 HONORING THE LIFE AND LEGACY OF SUZANNE MURRAY (Mr. MAGAZINER asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.) Mr. MAGAZINER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the life and legacy of Suzanne Murray, a humanitarian and philanthropist who made it her life's work to advocate for women's education. Born in Providence, Sue was an accomplished student who attended Henry Barnard School, the Lincoln School, and Radcliffe College, where she discovered a passion for education and found the love of her life, Terry Murray. The Murrays settled in Warwick and later Narragansett, raising five children. Sue devoted her time giving back to her alma maters, serving as chair of the board of the Lincoln School and as a trustee at Radcliffe, among many other leadership positions. In 2003, Lincoln named its middle school the Murray Middle School in her honor. In 1997, Sue and Terry cofounded the Murray Family Charitable Foundation to support education, healthcare, and the arts in southern New England. She assisted in the founding of Sophia Academy, a middle school in Providence for girls. Her work to expand access to education, particularly for young women, has made a difference in countless lives across Rhode Island and beyond. I join Sue's family and loved ones in celebrating her remarkable life. ____________________
