  Mr. GRAVES. Madam Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize James Johnson 
of Chillicothe, Missouri. On February 3, 2008, James will retire as 
Chief Executive Officer of the Hendrick Medical Center in Chillicothe, 
Missouri.
  Jim joined Hendrick Medical Center in 1998 as Chief Executive Officer 
and brings more than 35 years of health care experience to his 
position. While in Chillicothe Jim has been active in many community 
organizations as a leader, a volunteer and a board member. He was 
president of Rotary, Habitat for Humanity and the YMCA and is the 
current president of the Livingston County Community Foundation.
  Madam Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in recognizing James 
Johnson, whose dedication to Hendrick Medical Center and the city of 
Chillicothe has been truly inspirational. I wish James and his family 
the best of luck in the future and I am honored to serve him in the 
United States Congress.
