  Mr. BARR. Madam Speaker, I rise to honor a special citizen of our 
great nation, Judge Wallace ``Wally'' Johnson. Mr. Johnson lives in 
Montgomery County and he serves the people of that wonderful county as 
Judge-Executive.
  Judge Johnson graduated from Montgomery County High School in 1972 
and the KY School of Mortuary Science in 1980. He worked in a funeral 
home from 1974 to 2008. In 1989 he was elected Coroner for Montgomery 
County where he served until 2010. In 2010 he was elected to lead the 
people of Montgomery County as Judge-Executive. Since taking office, he 
has served on many important boards and commissions. He has worked hard 
to improve the lives of Montgomery Countians by developing economic 
opportunities, improving healthcare, improving existing infrastructure, 
and keeping the community safe. After many years of service, Judge 
Johnson is retiring. He is to be commended for his strong leadership 
for the people of Montgomery County.
  It is my honor to recognize this amazing public servant and thank him 
for his many years of service to the citizens of Montgomery County. 
Judge Wally Johnson's leadership, his dedication, and his love of 
community are greatly appreciated.
