                HONORING BILL JONES OF PADUCAH, KENTUCKY

  (Mr. COMER asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. COMER. Mr. Speaker, I rise to honor my very dear friend, Bill 
Jones, of Paducah, Kentucky, upon his retirement from U.S. Bank. Over 
his 37 years with U.S. Bank, Bill took on numerous leadership posts 
with the company and thrived in each role.
  His time in the financial business totaled 45 years and spanned 
significant changes in industry operations. As a leader, he was 
frequently forced to adjust to modern trends to ensure customer needs 
were met. And time and time again he has passed that leadership test 
with flying colors.
  In addition to his work in the banking industry, he has also served 
his community in the Commonwealth of Kentucky on numerous boards, 
including Kentucky Educational Television, Mercy Health Hospital, and 
other commissions geared toward economic development.
  As someone who has spent a lot of time in the banking industry 
myself, I know that the industry is better off thanks to Bill's 
contributions and leadership.
  Bill Jones is a west Kentucky legend. On behalf of all the residents 
of the First Congressional District of Kentucky, I wish Bill Jones a 
very happy retirement.
