  Mr. BONNER. Mr. Speaker, it is with great pride and pleasure that I 
rise to honor Alabama State Senator Harry E. ``Hap'' Myers for 12 years 
of leadership and service to the citizens of Mobile and the entire 
state of Alabama.
  Hap is a distinguished member of the Mobile, Alabama, community and a 
tremendous advocate for all of south Alabama. During his career in the 
Alabama State Legislature, he worked tirelessly on behalf of south 
Alabama and served as chairperson of the Senate Agriculture Committee, 
Local Legislation Number Three, and the Senate Veterans Military 
Affairs Committee.
  Hap has been a professional consulting engineer since 1961 and is 
presently vice president of Malcolm Pirnie, Inc., a national firm with 
over 50 offices, where he concentrates on municipal long range 
planning, finance, and operations.
  Mr. Speaker, the faithful service of outstanding Americans like Hap 
Myers 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, Toni, his 3 
children, his grandchildren and other family and many friends join with 
me in honoring his accomplishments and extending thanks for his many 
efforts on behalf of the people of Mobile and the entire state of 
Alabama.
