        WISHING MARK WILLIAMS GOOD LUCK IN HIS FUTURE ENDEAVORS

  (Mr. CONAWAY asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. CONAWAY. Mr. Speaker, it is with a bittersweet heart today that I 
rise to recognize my current chief of staff, Mark Williams.
  Mark will finish 16 years of service with the House of 
Representatives and be moving on to the private sector. He has been my 
chief for 4\1/2\ years. He served, faithfully, Todd Rokita, Sam 
Johnson, and myself. He is one of those quiet professionals who makes 
this place work.
  He is a consummate professional, and I am a better Member of Congress 
because of his wise counsel, his advice, his hard work, and his 
dedication to my team and our team.
  I wish he and his wife, Noel; son, Nolan; and daughter, Katherine all 
the best and Godspeed in this next endeavor. They will be missed. 
Although we won't see them on a day-to-day basis, they are still a part 
of Team Conaway and also my family.
  Mr. Speaker, I wish Mark good luck. We love him.
