                       Tuesday, February 4, 2020

  Mr. KELLY of Mississippi. Madam Speaker, I rise today to celebrate 
L.F. ``Sandy'' Sams, Jr., who is retiring after a successful career at 
the Mitchell, McNutt & Sams law firm in Tupelo, Mississippi.
   Sandy is a lifelong Mississippian who was born in Meridian, 
Mississippi, and later moved to West Point, Mississippi. After high 
school, he attended the University of Mississippi for undergrad and 
then returned to the University for Law School, where he graduated with 
honors. Sandy served our Nation in the United States Army as an 
Assistant Staff Judge Advocate in the U.S. Army XVIII Airborne Corps at 
Fort Bragg, North Carolina. After his service, he returned to West 
Point to practice law. In 1971, he officially began his career in 
Tupelo with the Mitchell McNutt law firm.
   Sandy Sams is a remarkable Mississippian, and it is individuals like 
him that make Mississippi and America great. I wish him all the best in 
his well-deserved retirement.
