RECOGNIZING SUWANNEE COUNTY SHERIFF'S DEPUTY TROY WADFORD
(Mr. DUNN asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. DUNN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the heroic efforts
of Suwannee County Sheriff's Deputy Troy Wadford earlier this month.
On June 4, Deputy Wadford was off duty and traveling with his family
when he witnessed a horrible car accident. He immediately took action
and administered aid to one of the drivers who was pinned in an
overturned car.
His quick thinking and response saved Destiny Romine that day. As you
can see here, Destiny is on the road to recovery because of Deputy
Wadford.
Even when our law enforcement personnel are off duty, they carry out
their commitment to protect and serve. They jump into action and they
put their lives on the line to keep us safe, and for that, we will all
be forever grateful.
I thank Deputy Wadford and all those who wear the badge. His actions
reflect great credit on the Suwannee County Sheriff's Office and
exemplify the best in America.
