  RECOGNIZING THE DECORATED CAREER AND BIRTHDAY OF JACKSONVILLE CITY 
                     COUNCIL PRESIDENT RANDY WHITE

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. AARON BEAN

                               of florida

                    in the house of representatives

                     Wednesday, September 11, 2024

  Mr. BEAN of Florida. Mr. Speaker, whether something's ablaze in your 
house or there's a hot button issue in Jacksonville, there's one man 
you can depend on to put out the fire.
  Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Jacksonville's City Council 
President, Randy White for 70 stellar years on this planet Earth. A 
lifelong public servant, Councilman White embodies the spirit of 
Northeast Florida. Councilman White is a family man with two children 
and 5 grandchildren. However, his 32-year career with the Jacksonville 
Fire and Rescue Department shows that he views the entirety of 
Jacksonville as his family.
  After three decades of putting out fires and rescuing cats from 
trees, one might think that Councilman White would be tired. But no. 
Instead, he championed the growth of Cecil Field and public safety in 
Jacksonville.
  I ask my colleagues to join me today in commending Councilman Randy 
White for his decades of public service. Jacksonville is truly a much 
better place because of Councilman White. Happy Birthday.
