HONORING THE LIFE OF HUGH BROWN McNATT
(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 to remember and honor the life of Hugh Brown McNatt, who passed away on June 1, 2021.
Hugh was known throughout Georgia for his remarkable career as a trial lawyer for over 50 years. Born on June 23, 1946, in Uvalda, Georgia, Hugh learned the importance of hard work, humility, and dedication to helping others. He flourished in law school and immediately began trying cases all over Georgia and throughout the southeast.
After advocating for others his entire life, he won several awards, including the Tradition of Excellence Award and the Thomas O. Marshall Professionalism Award.
Outside the courtroom, he was a member of many organizations, including the American College of Trial Lawyers, the American Board of Trial Advocates, and the International Society of Barristers.
He left a lifelong impact on his community, Georgia politics, his countless friends, and his family.
My thoughts and prayers are with his family, friends, and all those who knew him during this most difficult time.
