  Mr. CARTER of Georgia. Madam Speaker, I rise today to remember and 
honor the life of Mr. James William ``Jim'' Shinn Jr. of Pooler, 
Georgia, who passed away on April 10th.
  Jim was a man of honor and humility who served others in all areas of 
his life.
  Through his service in the U.S. Army, being an active member and 
faithful leader in his church, and coaching his youngest daughters' 
various sports teams, his life was a blessing to countless individuals.
  Jim worked for Delta Metals and was a co-owner of the successful 
family business, Steel

Erectors Incorporated, where he worked alongside his lovely wife, 
Leslie.
  His servant heart and faithfulness allowed him to not only thrive in 
all that he did, but leave behind a legacy that will never be 
forgotten.
  Jim loved and cherished his family above all else and was a 
remarkable father and husband.
  Pooler, Georgia, is truly better off because of Jim's devotion and 
intentionality, and I am so grateful for all that he did for his 
community.
  My thoughts and prayers go out to all who knew and loved him during 
this difficult time.
