Mr. GUTHRIE. Madam Speaker, I rise today in remembrance of Gerald Allen ``Gerry'' Lynn of Brandenburg, Kentucky. Gerry passed away on September 6, 2020, and I will miss him deeply.

Gerry was a passionate servant of his community. He always tried to bring people together. I first met him when he served in the Kentucky State House of Representatives. He then went on to serve as the Meade County Judge Executive, a role in which he worked tirelessly to better Meade County and the region. I always enjoyed spending time with him because he was interested in everything--and he could do anything. Whether it was paragliding, wiring his own home, or working hard to help Meade County, he accomplished anything he put his mind to. In addition to serving his community, Gerry also served our Nation in the Army.

Of all of Gerry's accomplishments, he was proudest of his family. My prayers are with his wife Nancye, his children, and his grandchildren. Gerry was an honorable man and a pillar in our community who will be missed by all.
