          JAMES WATSON, JR.--KATY'S SENIOR CITIZEN OF THE YEAR

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. PETE OLSON

                                of texas

                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, June 16, 2016

  Mr. OLSON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate James Watson, 
Jr. for being named Katy's `Senior Citizen of the Year' by a unanimous 
vote from the advisory board for the W.D and Argie Lee Fussell Senior 
Citizens Center.
  This award is given by the city of Katy to an older American in 
recognition of their contributions and positive impact on the 
community. James works as a pharmacist in the city of Katy with his 
wife, Joan, and has no plans to retire anytime soon because he still 
enjoys the job. James was born in Katy, attended schools there, and 
even met his wife in Katy, Texas. He left for a brief period to earn 
his Bachelor of Science degree in pharmacy from the University of Texas 
at Austin. James follows in the footsteps of his mother who won the 
very same award 21 years ago.
  On behalf of the Twenty-Second Congressional District of Texas, 
congratulations again to James Watson, Jr. for being named Katy's 
`Senior Citizen of the Year.' Keep up the great work.
