  Mr. THOMPSON of Mississippi. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor a 
remarkable servant, Je'Kari Douglas.
  On June 7, 2007, Je'Kari was born at the Natchez Community Hospital 
to a resilient single mother which he credits his good behavior and his 
understanding of the value of perseverance and compassion.
  Je'Kari proudly serves as a Student Ambassador for Natchez High 
School, a member of the National Honor Society, a varsity football 
player, having been chosen as an All-District wide receiver in the 5A 
Region 3 and received offers from several universities.
  With hard work and dedication, Natchez High salutes this honorable 
student for maintaining a stellar 3.8 GPA, ranking number 10 out of 137 
students in his graduating class.
  Je'Kari's passion for learning extends beyond academics. He enjoys 
exploring different cars and animals, spreading joy through humor, and 
cherishing moments with loved ones.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in recognizing this 
remarkable student, Je'Kari Corde' Douglas, for his actions and 
achievements in the Natchez, MS, community.
