       HONORING THE LIFE AND SERVICE OF COMMISSIONER MARCUS HARDY

  (Mr. YOHO asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. YOHO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in sadness, but also to honor a 
commissioner, Commissioner Marcus Hardy, who was a highly respected 
leader in his community.
  Marcus served as a city commissioner in the town of Crescent City, 
Florida, which is located in the district which I am proud to 
represent. I was fortunate enough to work alongside Mr. Hardy in 
efforts to improve Crescent City and the greater community.
  Beyond being a devoted public servant, a coach, and a role model, 
Marcus was a family man and a friend to many. Anyone who knew him knew 
his heart and his passion for serving others. He often spent his free 
time serving as a mentor for the Boys II Men organization in Crescent 
City or working to revitalize Putnam County for the benefit of the 
whole community.
  Marcus will be remembered for his compassion, his leadership, his 
friendship, his large, firm hand grip and contagious smile.
  Thank you for your service, Marcus. You will be missed by many.
