                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, June 11, 2020

  Mr. CARSON of Indiana. Madam Speaker, today I rise to honor and 
recognize our friend, Mark Anthony ``Tony'' Duncan who passed away on 
Saturday, June 6, 2020.
  Tony was a lifelong public servant, engaged civic leader, and 
activist. He dedicated himself to service for decades, first as Center 
Township Deputy Trustee to my grandmother, the late Congresswoman Julia 
Carson, when she served as Township Trustee. He later served when he 
was elected as the Center Township Constable in Marion County, a 
position he held until his passing, where he was legendary for serving 
justice with compassion.
  As a lifelong Democrat, Tony advocated for the Democratic Party, 
holding all accountable for their actions and changing the electorate 
of Marion County, Indiana. He served as the Treasurer for the Marion 
County Democratic Party and worked tirelessly to elect local Democratic 
candidates. His passion and knowledge of our community will not soon be 
forgotten.
  On a personal note, Tony served as my lifelong mentor, confidant, and 
friend. Beginning at a young age, Tony took me under his wings, 
imparting political wisdom. He was part of my family, and always there 
if you needed him.
  Today, I ask my colleagues to join me in honoring Tony Duncan, a dear 
friend, fellow Democrat, and public servant who will be dearly missed 
by me, as well as his family, friends, and community.
