Mr. Speaker, I will just say a few brief words.
I would like to say to the member across the way that we got to know each other around the prayer breakfast when I chaired it, and he stepped up, being a representative of his party and a person of faith himself.
I just want to say that we wish him well, from our party to him. I know that he is much too young to retire. He has a family. He is going back home and is going to be home a little more than he has been with all this travel. Believe me, I understand.
God bless him, and bless his family as he moves into the next phase of his life.
