                         RECOGNIZING TOM LANIER

  (Ms. FOXX asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Ms. FOXX. Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize a very soothing, informed, 
and familiar voice in the High Country in North Carolina: Tom Lanier.
  On July 23, Tom will be celebrating his 50th year on the air at WATA 
in Boone--a monumental milestone.
  In both Boone and surrounding areas, he is highly regarded as a true 
staple as he continues his early morning radio program without fanfare. 
With half a century of serving the High Country, you would be hard-
pressed to find someone who does not know of Tom and his commitment to 
keeping people informed.
  Tom, the service you continue to provide to our community is 
invaluable, and it is a testament to the caliber of person you are.
  Congratulations, and here is to many more years on the air.
