  Mr. CARTER of Georgia. Madam Speaker, I rise today to remember and 
honor the life of John E. ``Jack'' Hardman of Glynn County.
  Jack was a loyal friend and leader who served others with selfless 
devotion. He attended college in France and New Mexico, where he served 
as class president. After he received his degree from The Hiram Scott 
College in Nebraska, he moved to Brunswick, Georgia and was employed in 
the radio broadcasting business for the Wiggins family. When he worked 
in radio, he was known as Jack Pride, and managed three different radio 
stations in Georgia and Florida.
  Jack worked for Nationwide Insurance starting in 1984, and he retired 
in 2018 after 34 years. He took his leadership skills to new heights 
when he served on the Glynn County Board of Commissioners for two 
terms, and he was appointed as Chairman in 1995.
  Jack was a founding shareholder of the Atlantic National Bank and 
served on the Board for the Georgia Underwriting Association for many 
years.
  He was also an accomplished fisherman and a Licensed Master Captain.
  My thoughts and prayers are with his family, friends, and everyone 
who knew him during this most difficult time.
