                       HONORING ROBYN RICHARDSON

  (Mr. WOMACK asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. WOMACK. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize a milestone in the 
life of one of Russellville, Arkansas' most admired citizens, Robyn 
Richardson.
  He is a beloved fixture in the community and one of the River 
Valley's biggest sports fans. I first got to know Richardson when 
playing football for my alma mater, Russellville High School, and, 
later, Arkansas Tech University. Robyn never missed a game.
  I will always remember him in the end zone of football games, ready 
to catch field goals and extra points, then promptly returning the 
football to the game officials. He was as much a part of the game as 
the players on the field.
  But, Mr. Speaker, the milestone I speak of is the fact that he is now 
the longest-serving employee of Pope County, Arkansas, celebrating his 
50th anniversary of employment.
  I had the pleasure of joining the city and county last week in a 
tribute to Robyn's service. Not surprisingly, he told me he feels great 
and has no intention of retiring anytime soon.
  Mr. Speaker, I am proud of Robyn Richardson, and I want the Nation to 
hear of his amazing record of service.
  Congratulations to my friend.
