                               of georgia

                    in the house of representatives

                        Friday, October 27, 2000

  Mr. CHAMBLISS. Mr. Speaker, I want to pay tribute to a great American 
and Georgian, Paul R. Nagle, who recently retired as president of the 
Macon, Georgia Chamber of Commerce.
  Mr. Nagle has been an inspiration to all of us. Appointed as 
president in 1991, Mr. Nagle has been a leader and public servant that 
has always given 100 percent to the citizens of Macon.
  Mr. Nagle was born in Hominy, Oklahoma, but serving his country and 
his professional career have taken him around the country. He graduated 
from the University of South Carolina in Columbia, South Carolina with 
a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration and a major in 
Marketing. Additionally, he has given his time and energy to many 
wonderful causes including Robins Air Force Base 21st Century 
Partnership, the Macon, Georgia 2000 Partnership and the NewTown Macon 
Board.
  Mr. Speaker, I have had the distinct pleasure of working very closely 
with Mr. Nagle on many projects, including the very important Fall Line 
Freeway project. I am confident that his superior accomplishments and 
lasting legacy will continue to be felt in Macon and throughout Middle 
Georgia.
  I will miss working with Mr. Nagle, at the Macon Chamber, but will 
continue to wish him the best in his new endeavors.

                          ____________________
