HONORING JAMES "KEVIN" CREWS

Congressional Record, Volume 172 Issue 73 (Monday, April 27, 2026) [Congressional Record Volume 172, Number 73 (Monday, April 27, 2026)] [House] [Pages H3119-H3120] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] HONORING JAMES ``KEVIN'' CREWS (Mr. BEAN of Florida asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.) [[Page H3120]] Mr. BEAN of Florida. Mr. Speaker, northeast Florida has watched smoke rise on the horizon as brush fires burn in Nassau and Clay Counties amid severe drought. In moments like these, communities rely on those who are willing to stand between danger and everything we hold dear. Today, I rise to honor one of those individuals, James ``Kevin'' Crews of Hilliard, Florida. Kevin served faithfully with the Hilliard Volunteer Fire Department, answering the call time and time again to protect his neighbors. As brush fires spread across our region, he once again stepped forward without hesitation to serve on the front lines. Mr. Speaker, last Thursday, while responding to a fire along Old Dixie Highway, Kevin suffered a medical emergency in the line of duty and later passed away. Mr. Speaker, he was only 59 years old. Kevin's sacrifice reminds us what it truly means to serve. His loss is felt deeply in Hilliard and beyond. He lives a life of service, Mr. Speaker, and today I ask my colleagues to recognize him as a dedicated public servant and a hero. ____________________
