  Mr. JOHNSON of Georgia. Mr. Speaker,
  Whereas, our lives have been touched by the life of this one man who 
has given of himself in order for others to stand; and
  Whereas, Mr. Ladeadrick ``Bob'' Jackson's work is present throughout 
Meadowcreek High School for all to see, being the Principal of 
Meadowcreek High School, Lilburn, Gwinnett County, Georgia from 2006 to 
2011, he did much to aid in the achievements of the school; and
  Whereas, this giant of a man taught academics to young scholars, 
managed administrators, inspired elected officials, motivated the young 
and the old, as he accomplished so much during his time on this earth; 
and
  Whereas, this remarkable man gave of himself, his time, his talent 
and his life; he never asked for fame or fortune; he just wanted to 
uplift those in need, he just wanted to make a difference by educating 
others and building up a community; Mr. Jackson inspired others to do 
the same by witnessing him walk the walk and talk the talk; and
  Whereas, Mr. Jackson led by doing behind the scenes and on the front 
lines for many; Mr. Jackson was a husband, a father, an educator and a 
friend; he was our warrior, our patriarch, a man of great integrity who 
remained true to the uplifting of the community until his end; and
  Whereas, the U.S. Representative of the Fourth District of Georgia 
has set aside this day to bestow an honorable distinction and 
recognition on Mr. Ladeadrick ``Bob'' Jackson for his leadership, 
friendship and service to all of the citizens of Georgia and throughout 
the Nation; as a citizen of great worth and so noted distinction;
  Now therefore, I, Henry C. ``Hank'' Johnson, Jr. do hereby attest to 
the 112th Congress that Mr. Ladeadrick ``Bob'' Jackson of Georgia is 
deemed worthy and deserving of this ``Congressional Honorable 
Distinction:''
  Mr. Ladeadrick ``Bob'' Jackson--U.S. Citizen of Distinction--in the 
4th Congressional District of Georgia.
  Proclaimed, this 29th day of July, 2011.
