Mr. CARTER of Georgia. Madam Speaker, I rise today in remembrance of Dale C. Critz, Sr., who passed away at the age of 91.

Dale graduated from Duke University in 1955 with a BA in political science. After graduating, he was commissioned as an ensign in the United States Navy.

While attending Duke University, Mr. Critz met his wife, Lila. The two were married in Tallahassee in 1957, and shortly after they moved to Savannah. He had a successful 45-year business career with car dealerships spread across Georgia, South Carolina, Louisiana, and Florida.

Mr. Critz served on endowment committees at the Georgia Historical Society, the Savannah Community Foundation, and the George Washington Foundation. His efforts were noticed and greatly appreciated by the community. Dale once said in an interview that one of his main goals in life was to make Savannah a better place to live.

Dale Critz was a devoted father, a grandfather, and a philanthropist. He will be dearly missed by all.
