                      Thursday, February 26, 2009

  Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Madam Speaker, I respectfully request the 
attention of the House to pay recognition to an important day in the 
lives of two constituents of mine, Mr. and Mrs. Roy Johnson.
  On March 7, 2009, the Johnsons will celebrate their 50th wedding 
anniversary. Both Roy and Sybil Johnson were born in the Alexandria/
Saks area of Alabama. In fact, they were high school sweethearts. Over 
the years, Roy and Sybil have been blessed with two daughters, Delane 
O'Kelley and Ginger Gardner; and 4 grandchildren, Grant, Gray, Bradley 
and Brock. The Johnsons now also have one great grandchild, Katlyn 
Grace.
  I would like to congratulate Roy and Sybil Johnson for reaching this 
important milestone in their lives. They are shining examples of love 
and dedication for us all, and I wish them and their family all the 
best at this important occasion.

                          ____________________
