HONORING OFFICER CHRISTOPHER WAYNE BERRY
(Mr. WEBER of Texas asked and was given permission to address the
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. WEBER of Texas. Madam Speaker, today, I rise to recognize the
life of Officer Christopher Wayne Berry, a member of the Vidor Police
Department in Orange County, Texas.
Officer Berry was a dedicated public servant and an inspiration to
the community that he cherished so dearly.
Ever since he was a boy, Chris wanted to be a police officer, Madam
Speaker. Not only did he achieve that dream, Chris went on to serve
honorably as a keeper of the peace for over 30 years.
Those who knew him will tell you that he always treated anyone he met
with the utmost respect. He will forever be remembered as a kindhearted
community servant who was always willing to lend a helping hand.
In addition to being a well-respected member of the Vidor Police
force, Chris was also an avid outdoorsman who enjoyed hunting, fishing,
beekeeping, and gardening.
Officer Berry is survived by his wife, Brenda, and their three
children: Bailey, Brayden, and Amber. He is also survived by his
parents, Norman and Loretta Berry, as well as his brothers: Mike,
Stephen, and Michael Berry.
Madam Speaker, may Officer Chris Berry rest in peace. He will be
sorely missed.
