                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, June 20, 2000

  Mr. CHAMBLISS. Mr. Speaker, I would like to honor an exceptional 
citizen from Georgia's 8th Congressional District, Debbie Snellgrove of 
Warner Robins, recipient of the 2000 Liberty Bell Award.
  Each year, the Houston County Bar presents the Liberty Bell Award to 
one non-lawyer who makes a significant contribution to the legal 
profession. As a long time court employee, Debbie is highly deserving 
of this award. Debbie has been working as a state court administrator 
in Warner Robins for four years. Her previous professional experience 
includes serving as secretary to Judge Buster McConnell and secretary 
to Steve Pace in the Houston County District Attorney's office. As a 
loyal member of her community, Debbie has been involved with the 
Houston County domestic violence program, the victims assistance 
program, and the American Heart Association.
  In addition, Debbie took time out of her busy schedule to assist my 
office with arrangements for my Town Hall Meeting in Warner Robins this 
past April. I am pleased to say that this town hall meeting was a 
success, but would not have been without Debbie's assistance.
  Mr. Speaker, I am proud to recognize Debbie Snellgrove for her 
dedicated and service to Houston County and to the legal system of 
Warner Robins. She is an extraordinary citizen, and I am proud to serve 
as her Representative in the People's house.
