  Mr. BARR. Mr. Speaker, today I wish to recognize the parents and 
grandparents of a constituent of the sixth district of Kentucky by the 
name of Jim McCarty.
  Mr. McCarty's parents, James and Connie McCarty, celebrated their 
50th wedding anniversary on December 22, 2012 this past year. I would 
like to extend to them my best wishes and congratulations on such a 
great accomplishment.
  In 2013, Jim celebrated the anniversary of his grandparents Vernon 
and Geneva Gibbs who have been together for 70 years. Their anniversary 
occurred on January 30, 2013. I want to wish Mr. and Mrs. Gibbs 
congratulations as well and recognize the steadfast devotion they have 
for each other.
  Mr. Speaker, clearly in Mr. McCarty's family when you say I do, you 
stand by your word. I wish Jim and his family all the best, and again 
congratulations.

                          ____________________
