                      Tuesday, September 12, 2023

  Mr. FALLON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Mr. Kenneth Webb of 
Paris, Texas, for being recognized as a Homegrown Hero by the St. Paul 
Baptist Church. Mr. Webb has continued to stand out as an exemplary 
leader for North Texas through his acts of selfless service and 
generosity.
  Mr. Webb graduated from Paris Junior College in 1983, where he 
received dual honors from Phi Theta Kappa, an international 2-year 
college honor society. He earned a Bachelor of Science in Business from 
the University of Louisiana-Lafayette in 1988 and a Master of Science 
in Higher Education Administration from Texas A&M University-Commerce. 
After graduation, he returned to Paris Junior College to serve as the 
Director for Student Services, a position he holds to this day. Under 
his tenure, thousands of students stepped foot on campus and went on to 
achieve remarkable academic success and fulfill their potential. In 
2018, he was inducted into the Phi Theta Kappa Texas Hall of Honor for 
College Administrators and was recognized as a Distinguished College 
Administrator. I am privileged to commend Mr. Webb today for his 
unmatched dedication to student success.
  A devoted man of faith, Mr. Webb also serves as a deacon at Oak Hill 
Baptist Church in Arthur City. Furthermore, Mr. Webb serves on the 
Board of Directors of the Boys and Girls Club, where he was admitted 
into the Boys and Girls Club Hall of Fame in 2018 for his passion for 
youth community service. In 2019, he was awarded the Clintgate Friend 
of the Youth Award, which is bestowed to distinguished individuals who 
have dedicated numerous community service hours to benefit the children 
of Lamar County. Without question, Mr. Webb's commitment has had 
tremendous impact and made a notable difference in the lives of so many 
individuals. In his free time, he enjoys traveling, barbecuing, 
baseball, and spending time with his family.
  I have requested the United States flag to be flown over our Nation's 
Capital to recognize Mr. Webb's lifetime of service to the North Texas 
community. May God Bless him.
