                  IN MEMORY OF LOIS RUTH CASON WOOTEN

  (Mr. CARTER of Georgia asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. CARTER of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to mourn the loss of 
Lois Ruth Cason Wooten, who sadly passed away at the age of 95.
  Lois studied English and library sciences at the University of 
Georgia. She took her passion and expertise to work as the head 
librarian at Northside High School in Atlanta, Georgia.
  After her time in Atlanta, Lois and her husband, Frank, moved to 
Savannah, Georgia, where they selflessly served the city in a myriad of 
ways.
  Lois was greatly involved in the Savannah Symphony. She was greatly 
involved in the Savannah College of Art and Design and Wesley 
Monumental United Methodist Church.
  Mr. and Mrs. Wooten are survived by their beloved daughter, Ann, and 
their wonderful grandchildren.
  Lois will always be remembered for her service in the Atlanta and the 
Savannah communities and will be greatly missed by her family and 
friends.
  Mr. Speaker, I offer my sincere condolences to the entire Wooten 
family. My thoughts and prayers are with the family and Lois' friends 
today.
