               CELEBRATING THE LIFE OF ROBERT BOWLES, JR.

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Chair recognizes the gentleman from 
Georgia (Mr. Carter) for 5 minutes.
  Mr. CARTER of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to celebrate the 
life of Robert Bowles, Jr., a loving father, husband, and leader from 
the great State of Georgia.
  Robert was a proud graduate of the University of Georgia School of 
Pharmacy. He was the owner and pharmacist at Big C Discount Drugs of 
Thomaston until his retirement.
  Robert devoted his professional life to God, his customers, his 
community, his family, and to both the Georgia Pharmacy Association and 
the National Community Pharmacists Association.
  He was responsible for initiating one of the first successful 
diabetic care programs in the community pharmacy area.
  Robert is the past president of the Georgia Pharmacy Association, 
where he served on almost every committee that existed.
  He was the recipient of many State and national awards during his 
career, including the Bowl of Hygeia and the Larry L. Braden 
Meritorious Service Award.
  Robert's impact on our State will be felt for generations to come. He 
will be dearly missed.


                 Honoring Brian Tuten and Ed Livingston

  Mr. CARTER of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, I rise to honor Brian Tuten and 
Ed Livingston. Brian and Ed are trainers for Benedictine Military 
School in Savannah, Georgia.
  In October, during a Benedictine football practice, a player 
experienced a cardiac event. Brian and Ed jumped into action 
immediately to save the young boy's life. They performed lifesaving CPR 
and deployed an AED until the ambulance arrived.
  Luckily for the player, he is now making a full recovery.
  If it had not been for the quick action of both Brian and Ed, this 
situation could have been much worse.
  Thank you both for your service and dedication to our community and 
our district. You are both heroes.


             Celebrating the Camden County Sheriff's Office

  Mr. CARTER of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the 
Camden County Sheriff's Office for their hard work in finding a young 
man who went missing in Camden County during a hunting trip.
  Camden County Sheriff's Office did not act alone. They had the help 
of the Georgia Department of Natural Resources, McIntosh Fire and 
Rescue, and the McIntosh Sheriff's Office.
  The sheriff's department found the man after he had been missing for 
3 days. Authorities were worried because temperatures were dropping 
into the low 30s overnight. Luckily for the hunter, law enforcement 
worked quickly and efficiently to locate him. The hunter was evaluated 
by medical personnel and then returned home to his family.
  None of this would be possible without the quick action of our 
wonderful law enforcement in the First Congressional District of 
Georgia.

                   Recognizing Terry College Students

  Mr. CARTER of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
honor Terry College's first-place win at the National Black MBA 
Association Undergraduate Business Case Competition.
  Terry College is a premier business school located at my alma mater, 
the University of Georgia, home of the national champions Georgia 
Bulldogs.
  Terry College students, Kevin Kamau, Sophia Ige, Lauryn Sanders, and 
Phillip Ellington were a part of the team that won first place in the 
competition.
  The national case competition is a hands-on student consulting 
experience that provides undergraduates early exposure to MBA-level 
business case strategy. The program also allows students to be 
considered for competitive summer internship opportunities.
  Their team, the first to represent Terry College at the National 
Black MBA Association Undergraduate Business Case Competition, was 
tasked

with developing a recruitment plan for Generation Z graduates.
  This team beat out teams from Emory University, the University of 
Southern California, and Purdue University to take home the first place 
prize of $15,000.
  This was the University of Georgia's first time competing, and 
therefore, they were seen as the underdogs.
  Congratulations to the team and to the Terry College of Business.
