  Mr. KELLY of Mississippi. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize an 
outstanding Mississippian, Ronnie Rakestraw.
   Ronnie Rakestraw formerly served the public as the Union County East 
Post Justice Court Judge for over 32 years. During his extensive 
career, Ronnie saw many changes in the Mississippi court system. He was 
present when Union County decided to divide justice court judges into 
East and West Posts. Ronnie always remained a dedicated public servant 
and continued to put Mississippi first. He also served as a municipal 
court judge for the town of Sherman, Mississippi, for over 20 years.
   I thank Ronnie for his lifelong dedication to the law and for making 
Mississippi a better place. I wish him many years of good health.
