                    in the house of representatives

                          Friday, July 1, 2022

  Mr. BURCHETT. Madam Speaker, I rise to celebrate Winston Eye and 
Vision Center for its 80 years of business serving the wonderful people 
of the Knoxville community.
  In 1942, Dr. Harold J. Winston moved to Knoxville to start an 
optometry practice and create a good life for himself, his new wife, 
and the children they planned to have together. Decades later, the 
center enabled him to work alongside two of his sons, Jerry and Barry 
Winston, who followed in their father's footsteps and joined his 
practice after receiving their doctorates in optometry.
  The practice expanded to three generations in 2011 when Harold's 
grandson, Dr. Samuel A. Winston, joined the practice. A few short 
months later, in December 2011, Dr. Harold Winston passed away, but his 
legacy and practice are carried on by his sons and grandson who 
continue to run the business that brought him such great joy during his 
life.
  Congratulations to the Winston family, employees, and everyone 
involved in helping Winston Eye and Vision Center serve members of our 
great community for the past 80 years.
