REMEMBERING LEON COUNTY SHERIFF LARRY CAMPBELL
(Ms. GRAHAM asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute.)
Ms. GRAHAM. Madam Speaker, today I rise to remember and honor Leon
County Sheriff Larry Campbell, who after 50 years of public service
lost a long-fought battle with cancer on December 24, 2014.
Sheriff Campbell first joined the Sheriff's Office during his senior
year at Florida State University after serving in the Marine Corps. He
was elected sheriff in 1996, a position of trust he would hold until
his passing.
Sheriff Campbell was respected by law enforcement across our State
for his leadership. He was also well known for being an avid supporter
of charitable causes, including the United Way and American Heart
Association.
Sheriff Campbell is survived by his wife, Michelle; his son, Jack;
and two daughters, Jeannette and Stephanie.
Our community will remember Sheriff Campbell as a dedicated public
servant. We owe him and his family a great debt of gratitude.
