                       IN HONOR OF TALMADGE DAVIS

                                 ______


                       HON. GEORGE (BUDDY) DARDEN

                               of georgia

                    in the house of representatives

                       Friday, February 11, 1994

  Mr. DARDEN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to a man who has 
served his community honorably for more than three decades: Talmadge 
Davis of Heard County, GA.
  In 1957, Talmadge was elected clerk of Superior Court of Heard 
County, where he served for 20 years. From January 1978 until his 
recent retirement, Talmadge served as president of the Bank of Heard 
County.
  Mr. Speaker, a sign of the deep respect and admiration the people of 
Heard County have for Talmadge Davis is the fact that more than 200 
citizens stopped by the bank to congratulate Talmadge on his retirement 
and to wish him well.
  Although he will no longer be bank president, Talmadge will still 
serve his community as a member of the Heard County Water Authority 
Board, the Heard County Development Authority, the Chattahoochee-Flint 
Regional Development Center Board, and the Heard County Chamber of 
Commerce. Talmadge will also serve on the Bank of Heard County's board 
as well.
  Talmadge has given 36 years of outstanding service to the people of 
Heard County. His legacy of service is something all of us should 
strive to emulate. I ask my colleagues to join me in wishing Talmadge 
and his wife Jackie a happy retirement.
