  Mr. STUMP. Mr. Speaker, it is a pleasure for me to recognize that a 
good friend and fellow native Arizonan, Dr. Donald E. Jarnagin, of 
Glendale, Arizona, is being inducted as the 74th President of the 
American Optometric Association today by his colleagues at their 98th 
Annual Congress in Nashville, Tennessee.
  Don's accomplishment are most impressive and extend past his field of 
optometry. He is a graduate of Southern California College of Optometry 
in Fullerton, California, and has held numerous elective and appointed 
positions in his professional career. Prior to first being elected to 
the American Optometric Association Board of Trustees in 1987, Don 
served as the Central Arizona Optometric Society's President and then 
went on to become President of the Arizona Optometric Association.
  Active in his community, Don is a former president of the Glendale 
Rotary Club and has been appointed a member of the City of Glendale 
Charter Review Committee. He chaired the City of Glendale Housing 
Authority and has also been active in the Glendale Chamber of Commerce.
  I am pleased to join Don's family, many friends and colleagues in 
congratulating him on his induction today. From his many years of 
friendship and counsel, I know that he will be an outstanding AOA 
President, and will do a great job in leading the Association in its 
efforts to improve our Nation's vision care.
