  Mr. MILLER of Florida. Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize the life and 
legacy of Northwest Florida's beloved Lloyd Hinote, who passed away 
November 13, 2016. A longtime resident of Milton, Florida, Lloyd had a 
deep love for his family and for his community and his continued 
efforts to make Milton a more beautiful place has left a lasting impact 
that will be remembered for years to come.
  Born on January 22, 1938, in Alflora, Florida to James and Verble 
Hinote, Lloyd spent his first eight years in nearby Indian Ford, before 
moving to live the remainder of his life in his beloved Milton. Lloyd 
graduated as 1 of 56 students in the Milton High School Class of 1956, 
and after high school he matriculated to Florida State University, 
where he earned a bachelor's degree in management and finance.
  Lloyd continued his education, completing The School of Banking at 
the University of Oklahoma, and then embarked on a successful private 
sector career, working as the vice president of a local bank for over 
twenty-four years and as a private business owner for over eighteen 
years, before serving almost ten years as the executive director of the 
Pace Area Chamber of Commerce. In 2002, Lloyd decided to serve his 
community in local government by serving on the Milton City Council.
  On the Milton City Council, Councilman Hinote represented Ward IV for 
over 15 years. It was his leadership as Chairman of the Parks and 
Recreation committee that initiated the improvements at Sanders Street 
Park and Russell Harbor Landing. He was fully dedicated to bettering 
Milton, as evidenced by his work on the council to build a new city 
hall, fire station, wastewater treatment facility, and build and 
maintain countless recreation facilities.
  On behalf of the United States Congress, I am privileged to recognize 
the life of Lloyd Hinote. My wife Vicki and I extend our heartfelt 
prayers and condolences to his daughter, Lisa; and grandson, Skylar.
