  Mr. COLLINS of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the 
life of Louise Little, a native of Morganton who passed away on June 
30.
  Louise was born and raised in our home of northeast Georgia. After 
graduating from Sacred Heart College, she moved back to the area to 
care for her friends and loved ones as a lab technician at the Rockford 
Clinic.
  With a passion for service, Louise used her time away from work to 
immerse herself in her community. She was actively involved in the 
Lions Club, where she received numerous awards for her dedication and 
selflessness towards others.
  On the political front, Louise was a leader who encouraged women to 
get more involved in politics. Her commitment to women earned her the 
position of president at her local chapter of the National Federation 
of Republican Women.
  Between that and her work with the local Republican party, she 
encouraged others to speak out and share their ideas. She believed that 
every voice matters and that every individual has the power to make a 
difference.
  Mr. Speaker, northeast Georgia is grateful for Louise Little. This 
woman lived a life committed to helping others. She was determined to 
make her community and country a better place for everyone.
  While I'm sad to see the story of such an outstanding woman come to a 
close, I am thankful that Mrs. Little's legacy will carry on among her 
neighbors.
