Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize David Sparks for his outstanding contributions and visionary leadership in the pharmaceutical industry. As the previous CEO and current chairman of the board at the Professional Compounding Centers of America, PCCA, Mr. Sparks has been instrumental in advancing the pharmaceutical industry. Since joining PCCA in 1992, he has fought to protect pharmacists' rights to compound, playing a key role in FDA reform legislation. Before PCCA, he owned pharmacies in Tulsa for over two decades, pioneering the introduction of compounding pharmacies in hospice care. Committed to education, Mr. Sparks is a proud contributor to the SWOSU general scholarship fund, ensuring that future pharmacists have the essential resources to succeed. He is also an adjunct professor at the University of Houston College of Pharmacy and an active member of its Mading Society of benefactors. He remains a dedicated advocate for the advancement of pharmacy, continuously supporting the profession through leadership and philanthropy. Mr. Sparks' impact on the pharmaceutical industry is profound and lasting, and his leadership will continue to shape its future. Recognizing Jim Smith for Leadership in Pharmaceutical Compounding
