  Mr. JOHNSON of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, I submit the following 
Proclamation.
  Whereas, Ninety years ago on May 16, 1922, a tenacious man of God was 
born in St. Anns Jamaica West Indies; and
  Whereas, Mr. James L. Littlejohn, born to Georgianna and Nehemiah 
Littlejohn, grew up in Jamaica where he met and married his sweetheart 
Millicent and to their union two children were born, Barbara and 
Gilbert; and
  Whereas, Mr. Littlejohn has shared his time and talents as a Husband, 
Father and Motivator, giving the citizens of Jamaica, England and the 
United States a person of great worth, a fearless leader and a servant 
to all advancing the lives of others, through service at Brooklyn 
Baptist Church (1975) in New York and since 2002 at Peace Baptist 
Church in DeKalb County, Georgia; and
  Whereas, Mr. Littlejohn has been blessed with a long, happy life, 
devoted to God and credits it all to the Will of God; and
  Whereas, Mr. Littlejohn along with his family and friends are 
celebrating a remarkable milestone, his 90th Birthday, we pause to 
acknowledge a man who is a cornerstone in our community; and
  Whereas, the U.S. Representative of the Fourth District of Georgia 
has set aside this day to honor and recognize Mr. Littlejohn on his 
birthday and to wish him well and recognize him for an exemplary life 
which is an inspiration to all;
  Now therefore, I, Henry C. ``Hank'' Johnson, Jr. do hereby proclaim 
May 16, 2012 as Mr. James L. Littlejohn Day in Georgia's 4th 
Congressional District of Georgia.
