The publication is reproduced in full below:

HONORING THE LIFE OF HANK HUCKABY

(Mr. CARTER of Georgia asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)

Mr. CARTER of Georgia. Madam Speaker, I rise today with a heavy heart to remember and honor Hank Huckaby, who passed away on April 14 at the age of 79.

Hank was a lifelong public servant who served the State of Georgia in numerous capacities for more than 50 years. He held a number of top roles in Georgia government and education, including chancellor of Georgia's public colleges and universities, executive director of the Georgia Housing and Finance Authority, director of the Office of Planning and Budget, and in the Georgia House of Representatives.

Put simply, Hank was devoted to serving the people of Georgia. His public service extended out of the workplace, volunteering his time and leadership in various civic and religious organizations throughout his life.

Madam Speaker, Hank Huckaby was a graduate of Young Harris College, and I had the privilege of serving with him on the board of trustees of Young Harris College. He loved Young Harris College, and Young Harris College loved him.

Hank was a strong leader, a source of strength, and a true friend to all who knew him. He will be greatly missed.

My thoughts and prayers are with his family, friends, and all who knew him during this most difficult time.
