  Mr. BONNER. Mr. Speaker, it is with great pride and pleasure that I 
rise today to recognize Alabama State Representative F.P. ``Skippy'' 
White for his dedicated, faithful public service to the citizens of 
Baldwin and Escambia Counties.
  Representative White has been a tremendous advocate for all of south 
Alabama for over three decades. He began his public service career as a 
councilman for the city of Pollard, AL, and served for 7 years. In 
1982, he was elected to the Alabama House of Representatives and served 
in that capacity for 24 years.
  During his career in the Alabama State Legislature, Representative 
White worked tirelessly on behalf of south Alabama. He was 
distinguished as an outstanding legislator and served on the House 
Rules Committee.
  Mr. Speaker, the faithful service of outstanding Americans like 
Skippy White has aided in an immeasurable way to the well being of our 
community. I would like to offer my congratulations for his many 
personal and professional achievements. I know his wife, Clara; his 
children, Todd, Hugh, and Sarah Anne; and his family and many friends 
join with me in praising his accomplishments and extending thanks for 
his many efforts on behalf of south Alabama.
