  Mr. KEATING. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Mr. Robert 
McCarthy upon his retirement as the Register of Probate of Plymouth, 
Massachusetts after over four decades of public service.
   During his long and noteworthy career, Mr. McCarthy served in a 
number of positions in Massachusetts, including East Bridgewater

Selectman, Chairman on Taxation, State Representative, and State 
Senator. In the 1970s, Mr. McCarthy worked alongside Massachusetts 
Governor Michael Dukakis, quickly becoming a widely beloved and trusted 
leader in the community. Mr. McCarthy became the Plymouth County 
Register of Probate in 2000, where his many accomplishments have been 
invaluable to the people he has served. His colleagues and friends who 
have worked with him throughout the years agree that he will be sorely 
missed as he steps down from this position.
   Mr. Speaker, it brings me great pride to honor Mr. Robert McCarthy 
upon his retirement. I ask that my colleagues join me in thanking Mr. 
McCarthy for his many years of public service.
