                    in the house of representatives

                       Tuesday, September 6, 2016

  Mr. LOUDERMILK. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to my good 
friend and a man, Mr. Gould B. Hagler, Jr., who has devoted his life to 
serving the individuals and the communities of Georgia.
  This year, Gould will retire from the Independent Insurance Agents of 
Georgia, where he has spent the past thirty years working to represent 
the many independent insurance agencies and the thousands of Georgians 
employed by those small businesses. Under Gould's leadership, the 
Independent Insurance Agents of Georgia has been recognized for 
countless achievements by their national association.
  Gould has spent his career advocating for Georgians through his 
association management and legislative affairs positions with the 
Georgia General Assembly, the Council of State Governments and the 
Medical Association of Georgia.
  As a native Georgian, Gould has certainly made it his life's work to 
better the people and communities of our great state. On behalf of the 
people of Georgia's 11th Congressional District and the United States 
House of Representatives, I commend Gould B. Hagler, Jr. for his years 
of outstanding service, and congratulate him as he moves on to the next 
chapter of his life.
