  Mr. TROTT. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in recognition of the heroic 
actions of Sean English of Northville, Michigan.
  As he and his family drove down I-96 in Detroit, they witnessed a 
rolled over SUV and selflessly pulled over to help a fellow 
Michigander. However, at the scene of the accident, Sean and another 
Good Samaritan, Cynthia Ray, were struck by another vehicle. 
Tragically, Cynthia Ray, a doctor at Henry Ford Hospital, passed. 
However, thanks to the actions of Michigan State Police Trooper Patrick 
Arena, we are blessed to have Sean still with us.
  As a junior at University of Detroit Jesuit High School, Sean is 
admired by his classmates and teachers alike. His dedication to service 
and kind and uplifting spirit make him the true embodiment of his high 
school's motto--``men for others.''
  A shining star on his school's cross country and track teams, he is a 
talented runner who challenges not only himself, but his teammates and 
his friends to give it their all and be the best they can at everything 
they do.
  I am so thankful that Sean will continue to be a vibrant presence in 
our community, surrounded by his family, friends, and fellow 
Michiganders who will continue to recognize his selflessness on that 
day and as he continues to serve others.
  Sean's a fighter with an unbreakable spirit--a spirit that will 
sustain him as he experiences life's peaks and triumphs over its 
hurdles. My thoughts and prayers are with Sean and his family--John, 
Peggy, and Megan--as he makes a speedy recovery
