                        Tuesday, April 26, 2016

  Mr. VALADAO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the life and 
accomplishments of Fresno County Deputy Sheriff, Mike Trevino Jr. who 
sadly passed away on March 21, 2016.
  Mr. Trevino was born in Fowler, California on November 29, 1964 to 
Mike Trevino and Amanda Sarabia. After his graduation from Selma High 
School in 1982, Mike enlisted in the United States Army where he served 
as a combat engineer. After he was honorable discharged, Mr. Trevino 
began work at the Auto Warehouse and the Fresno County Office of 
Education. In 1995, he enrolled in the Fresno City Community College 
Police Academy while also working full time.
  Following in his father's footsteps, Mike began work at the Fresno 
County Sheriff's Department in July 1996 as a deputy sheriff. During 
his time with the sheriff's department, Mr. Trevino worked in the Field 
Services Division and later went on to serve in the Narcotics Unit. 
Deputy Sheriff Trevino is remembered with respect by his colleagues and 
all those who knew him, especially for his ability to break barriers 
and establish trust with the locals. Words of support and sympathy for 
his family have even come from individuals he previously arrested, yet 
still hold him in high regard.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues in the United States House of 
Representatives to join me in honoring the life and achievements of 
Deputy Sheriff Mike Trevino Jr. My thoughts and prayers are with his 
family, especially his children and grandchildren, Breanna, Fabian, 
Micah, and Damian during this difficult time.
