                         Tuesday, June 8, 1999

  Mr. BARR of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, it is my distinct honor today to 
recognize two citizens in my district who have made their lives a model 
of commitment for all of us. Those people are Tom and Irene Ward of 
Winston, Georgia, who celebrated their 68th wedding anniversary on 
Sunday, May 30th, 1999.
  In a time when traditional family values are under attack across our 
culture, Tom and Irene's example of steadfast devotion is an 
inspiration. I wish them all the best on the ocassion of their 
anniversary, and I hope they will enjoy many more years of happiness 
together.
