Friday event will honor Richard Ray Congressman Richard Ray will be honored by the City of Byron, the Byron Area Hospital Society and friends on Friday, April 29, 1994 at 7:30 p.m. The event will be held at the Byron Elementary School and the public is invited. Charlie Harmon, President of the Georgia Chamber of Commerce and formerly Chief of Staff to Senator Sam Nunn, Mayor Jim Worrell of Perry, and Mayor James E. Williams of Byron, will make presentations honoring Mr. Ray. Senator Sam Nunn may be able to participate through a telephone hookup if his schedule permits. Congressman Ray served the Third Congressional District for 10 years in Washington. During this time, Congressman Ray was deeply involved in working for the District's residents and preserving the District’s historical treasures. As an influential member of the House Armed Services Committee, Congressman Ray was instrumental in securing funding and workload for Robins Air Force Base and Fort Benning. In addition, his position as Chairman of the Committee’s Environmental Panel allowed Congressman Ray to work for the advancement of the environment on Page 5A all military installations worldwide. Additionally, Congressman Ray was the driving force behind many historic prservation efforts across the District. He helped establish the Byron Area Historical Society and successfully worked to have the Byron Railroad Depot declared a Historical Site. Due to a redistricting process that split the historic Third District and separated Congressman Ray from his home base of Houston County and much of Peach County, Congressman Ray was upset in the general election. However, Mr. Ray has established an impressive business as a consultant, and is working with the 21st Century Partnership which is the group of citizens that will work the Defense Base Closure and Realignment Commission as it focuses on Robins AFB. The celebration will enjoy a performance by the U.S. Air Force Reserve Dixie Land Band and a flag presentation by the Air Force Materiel Command.

Waters, from 3A Schwarzeneggar's Terminator 2, whose subtitle was "judgment day." The day of judgment is not a frightening thought to God's children, though. During it we will find a loving Heavenly Father who will see His children as forgiven and justified through faith in Christ. The coming judgment day reminds me of a story about a young preacher who was visiting in the community. he began a conversation with an older gentleman and asked, "Do you have salvation?" The man replied, "No, but I have arthritis." "No," the preacher replied, "I mean are you lost?" The man retorted, "Nope, I've lived here all my life." The preacher was now frustrated and exclaimed, "I hope you're ready for the Judgment Day because it may be coming today or tomorrow!" The man answered, "Well please don’t tell my wife about it. She'll want to go goth days.” Legal Deadline Is Monday At 12 Noon
