                        Monday, February 1, 2016

  Mr. MILLER of Florida. Mr. Speaker, I rise to honor the life and 
dedicated service of Chief Jimmy Cagle of Berrydale, Florida who died 
on January 24, 2016. Chief Cagle was a patriot, committed community 
leader, and devoted family man, and Northwest Florida mourns his 
passing.
   For more than two decades, Chief Cagle served our Nation honorably 
in the United States Navy as a boiler tender and firefighter. Following 
his military service, Chief Cagle continued his service to his local 
community and joined the Berrydale Volunteer Fire Department, where he 
served as Chief for 25 years. Under his steadfast leadership, the 
residents of the Berrydale community slept soundly, knowing that they 
are under the watchful eye of the Berrydale Volunteer Fire Department.
   Through his service, Chief Cagle became a staple in Northwest 
Florida. Those who knew him best can truly attest to his selflessness 
and compassion. He will be remembered for devotion to the Berrydale 
community and fire department, which was rivaled only by his love for 
his family.
   On behalf of the United States Congress, I am honored to recognize 
the life of Chief Jimmy Cagle. My wife Vicki and I extend our heartfelt 
prayers and deepest condolences to his wife of 25 years, Debbie; 
daughter, Conda and her husband, Randy Sasser; son, Jim; grandchildren, 
Kassie and her husband, Matt DiMase, Lt. Josh Sasser and his wife, 
Katie, Chelsea and her husband, Staff Sgt. Cody Belcher, and Kaitlyn, 
Brianna, and Cody Pugh; great-grandchildren: Reece, Kolby, Kennedy, 
Landon, Mattingly, and Macelynn; and the entire Cagle and fire 
department families.
