                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, May 11, 2016

  Mr. STIVERS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Tim Doran for his 
retirement from the Ohio Automobile Dealers Association (OADA) after 
nearly 40 years with the association.
  Tim graduated from Ohio University in 1972 with a Bachelor of Science 
degree in Business. Soon after graduation in 1976, Tim joined OADA as 
the Director of Services. He quickly rose through the ranks at OADA and 
eventually took the role of President.
  The OADA works to support and increase the values of the Ohio 
automobile dealerships to make them the strongest in the nation. In his 
role as President, he has overseen all OADA Services and business 
activities, including implementing dealer programs, delegating staff 
projects, and monitoring all administrative and operations functions.
  Beyond managing the OADA, Tim is instrumental in his role as a 
liaison between the Ohio legislature and the over 800 OADA members. He 
ensures all of the automobile dealerships, large or small, receive 
effective representation and support.
  Tim Doran has shown incredible dedication to serving the automobile 
businesses in Ohio. I would like to thank him for his great service to 
these companies over the years and wish him all the best in his well-
deserved retirement.
