                     HONORING JOHN M. STUCKEY, JR.

  (Mr. JACK asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. JACK. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to celebrate the life of a man 
whose legacy was marked by intellect, integrity, and a deep devotion to 
profession and family, Mr. John M. Stuckey, Jr., who passed away on May 
30.
  John was born on August 9, 1939, in Shreveport, Louisiana, and was a 
graduate and lifelong supporter of Louisiana State University.
  Following college, he moved to Washington, D.C., where he earned his 
law degree from George Washington University, and served his country as 
an intelligence officer in the United States Army.
  After his honorable discharge as a captain, John worked in the 
legislative branch in which we all serve, as the chief of staff to 
Senator Bill Brock.
  Thereafter, he and his wife, Sandra, moved to Newnan, Georgia, and 
established Roanoke Farm, from where John would become a pioneering 
leader of the Georgia Republican Party. He led President Nixon's 
campaign in our State and was later elected and served as chairman of 
the Georgia Republican Party from 1987 to 1989.
  In Newnan, he spent many lunches at Mama Lucia's, where he regaled 
his friends with stories of history, sports, and politics.
  He was integral in the establishment of Brown's Mill Battlefield 
historic site, and he raced with his grandchildren on John Deere Gator 
rides across the family farm.
  John is survived by his wife, Sandra; his son, and my friend, John; 
his daughter, Aaron; and four wonderful grandchildren.
  John M. Stuckey's service to his country and legacy across our 
community will be felt for generations to come.
