                       Tuesday, January 11, 2022

  Mr. WITTMAN. Madam Speaker, it is with deep sadness but great respect 
that I take this time to remember Aubrey M. ``Bucky'' Stanley, Jr. of 
Hanover, Virginia, who passed away on December 31, 2021. Bucky was a 
longtime Hanover County resident who spent many years of his life 
serving his county.
  Bucky graduated from Patrick Henry High School and attended North 
Carolina State University. He returned to Virginia to work in the 
lumber and timber industry, first working with a family business, 
Stanley Lumber, and after that, owning his own company, AMS Timer, LLC.
  In 1983, Bucky won his first election in Hanover, serving 38 years on 
the board, and six terms as chairman. He was the longest-serving Board 
of Supervisors member not only in the history of Hanover County, but 
the Commonwealth of Virginia as well. Bucky also served as chairman of 
the Capital Region Airport Commission for four terms. Bucky was a true 
servant leader in everything that he did and always put others first.
  In addition to serving his beloved Hanover, Bucky was passionate 
about softball, managing and sponsoring teams including Stanley Lumber, 
Crossfire, Buckeye Softball, Mid-Atlantic Softball, and Andy's of 
Ashland. He travelled around the nation to participate in the sport and 
was inducted into the Hall of Fame of several of the sports sanctioning 
organizations.
  Bucky was a great family man and showed his love to them in many 
ways. Bucky was preceded in death by his parents, Aubrey Mae Stanley 
Sr. and Helen Harris Stanley, and his wife, Ellen Epps Stanley. He is 
survived by his son, Darrell Stanley (Sheila) and his grandson, Wyatt 
Stanley.
  Madam Speaker, I ask you to join me and countless others as we 
recognize the life of Aubrey M. ``Bucky'' Stanley, Jr.
