Congressional Record, Volume 172 Issue 62 (Monday, April 6, 2026) [Congressional Record Volume 172, Number 62 (Monday, April 6, 2026)] [Extensions of Remarks] [Page E303] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] CONGRATULATING DR. JACK STERNBERG ON HIS INDUCTION TO THE ARKANSAS WALK OF FAME ______ HON. BRUCE WESTERMAN of arkansas in the house of representatives Monday, April 6, 2026 Mr. WESTERMAN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to extend my sincere congratulations to Dr. Jack Sternberg on his induction to the Arkansas Walk of Fame. The first oncologist in Arkansas, Dr. Sternberg is a pioneer of cancer care in our state. Fondly known by his patients as ``Dr. Jack,'' his dedication to serving the people of his community goes far beyond a white coat; it's rooted deeply in his heart. His true character has been evident through the impactful relationships he's built within the community he's served for so long. For decades, Dr. Jack's work has gone beyond clinical care to provide a more personal approach, guiding each patient and their family through an incredibly difficult chapter with tenderness and tailored care. He didn't just want to be their doctor; he wanted to be their friend. His compassionate heart led him to serve as a volunteer doctor for the VA after his retirement in 2006, acting as an overflow physician who quickly became a beloved figure at the clinic. Dr. Jack would likely also appreciate my mentioning how deeply his faith has impacted his life. Guided by his faith, his belief in God illuminates every corner of his life--from each patient he encountered to the pieces of literature he has written. I am proud to recognize Dr. Jack today for the lasting impact he has made not only in his own community but also throughout the entire state of Arkansas. His induction to the Arkansas Walk of Fame is a testament to the trust placed in him by his patients and community, establishing him as a champion for health and healing across the Natural State.
