	WHEREAS, Born in Bee House in 1914, A. C. Huff is the son of

	Huff, and as a boy he picked cotton and performed other work on the

	relationship of 63 years before Mrs. Huff's death in 2007; and
	WHEREAS, While employed at Sinclair Refinery, Mr. Huff
	developed a passion for boat racing; he won the 1954 world

	Ronnie Nance; and
	WHEREAS, A. C. Huff has witnessed a panorama of change over
	the course of more than a century, and he has met life's challenges
