                       RECOGNIZING RAYMON THACKER

 Mr. ALLEN. Mr. President, I am pleased today to recognize Mr. 
Raymon Thacker for his community service and leadership. Mr. Thacker is 
in his 70th consecutive year of service as a member of the Scottsville 
Volunteer Fire Department. Mr. Thacker is a founding member of the 
Department, and has selflessly given much of his time and hard work to 
see to it that the Department continues to run smoothly and 
effectively.
  The Scottsville Volunteer Fire Department serves about 15,000 
residents within southern Albemarle, Fluvanna, Buckingham, and Nelson 
Counties. Mr. Thacker has worked tirelessly to make sure everyone in 
the area remains safe and secure.
  The Scottsville region surely appreciates the talents and efforts 
that Mr. Raymon Thacker has displayed as a member of the Scottsville 
Volunteer Fire Department. I congratulate him on his community service 
and wish him well in the future.
