Today I want to rise and recognize my friend Judge Charles D. Thomas, who died recently and who was a great mentor and friend to me. Judge Thomas was a former military member and served as a company commander in the Mississippi Army National Guard. He was a graduate of Marion Military Institute, the University of Alabama, and he also graduated from the University of Mississippi School of Law, or Ole Miss Law. Judge Thomas was the judge that swore me in when I started practicing law. But he was more than just a judge. He was a mentor and a friend, and I want to acknowledge all that he did to help me become successful. Honoring the Life of Billy ``Dog'' Brewer
