  Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize the 50th 
wedding anniversary of Bill and Sherlyn Jackson.
  On Friday, August 17, 2018, Bill and Sherlyn celebrated their 50th 
wedding anniversary in Savannah, Georgia. The trip was an anniversary 
gift from their children.
  Bill and Sherlyn met as neighbors growing up in Talladega, Alabama, 
and got to know each other through school. They were 5th grade 
sweethearts and started dating their senior year of high school and all 
through college.
  Bill and Sherlyn were married while Bill was finishing law school at 
the University of Alabama. The Jacksons were blessed with two children: 
Amy and Brad, and four grandchildren.
  Mr. Speaker, please join me in congratulating my dear friends, Bill 
and Sherlyn, on this exciting occasion. Happy 50th wedding anniversary.
