  Mr. KELLY of Mississippi. Madam Speaker, I rise today to celebrate 
the life and accomplishments of Mr. John Lovorn Jr., who passed away on 
July 28, 2021.
  Mr. Lovorn was born in Jackson, MS and raised in Fairfax, VA. He 
attended Southern Miss and began his career in Greenwood, MS at the 
Chamber of Commerce. He then went on to be Vice President of JESCO and 
later joined PHH Fantus as vice president and principal. In 1993 he 
started his own successful consulting firm, The Pace Group. He was 
known to be a gifted public speaker, story teller, and author.
  Mr. Lovorn is survived by his wife of 50 years, their two children 
and three grandchildren. He was a longtime, active member of First 
United Methodist Church and an avid supporter of various charities in 
the Tupelo community.
  Mr. Lovorn's positive attitude and generous heart will be dearly 
missed.
