REMEMBERING JEREMY CAMPBELL Congressional Record, Volume 172 Issue 152 (Thursday, September 24, 2026) [Congressional Record Volume 172, Number 152 (Thursday, September 24, 2026)] [Senate] [Page S4982] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] REMEMBERING JEREMY CAMPBELL Mr. CRAPO. Madam President, I honor and remember the life of Jeremy Campbell, the brother of Brendan Campbell, a dedicated member of my staff. As we approach the anniversary of Jeremy's death on October 27, 2025, we are reminded of his goodness and love that were hallmarks of Jeremy's life. Jeremy enjoyed being outdoors: riding dirt bikes, hunting, fishing, and playing baseball. He spent many weekends at motocross tracks and enjoyed working on race cars with his dad and friends. He spent time working in his yard and mowing the grass for his mom. Jeremy also liked boat rides, golfing, and spending time with his dad. He was an example of how to overcome significant challenges with a positive attitude, humor, love, and determination. In 2008, Jeremy suffered a traumatic brain injury following a motocross accident. In response, he demonstrated an unflinching resilience as he worked to re- learn how to walk, talk, and eat, along with many other aspects of daily life. His same love for the outdoors brought him a new love for horse therapy, forging a bond with the horses and his instructors at StableStrides. Jeremy's parents, siblings, nieces, grandmothers, aunts, uncles, cousins, and the love of his life lost a true, reliable man. His loved ones described him as ``kind, caring and patient. Helping people made his heart so full. He inspired everyone who knew him with his positive attitude, humor, and love.'' I honor Jeremy's life today as one taken too soon, but one filled with love and purpose throughout his 38 years. Since his passing, many have shared how Jeremy touched their lives, how he lent them a helping hand, how he checked on them, how he made them feel safe and, of course, not alone. I join the prayers for healing and comfort for Jeremy's family and extend very special condolences to his parents Marty and Sherri: May you find consolation in knowing you helped send forward into our world a son who brought light to others. Jeremy is deeply missed, and his lasting, positive impact is felt in the lives of those who were fortunate to know him. As we honor his life, we mourn his loss and cherish his loving memory. ____________________
