                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, June 27, 2024

  Mr. RESCHENTHALER. Mr. Speaker, I rise to celebrate the life of Rhys 
Taylor Frost, president of the Donora Fire Company, who sadly passed 
away on June 24, 2024.
  Rhys was born and raised in Donora, Pennsylvania. He had a passion 
for his local community and always wanted to be a first responder to 
help those in need.
  At only 14 years old, Rhys became a volunteer firefighter at the 
Donora Fire Company and later became an emergency medical technician 
(EMT) in 2018. Through his determination and selfless work ethic, he 
became president of the company a year later in 2019. Rhys never 
stopped finding ways to serve southwestern Pennsylvania and always 
answered the call of duty.
  It was his dream to simultaneously serve as a policeman, EMT, and 
firefighter, a testament to his desire to protect and defend his 
community. Those who knew Rhys best will never forget his infinite 
selflessness and his eternal love for Donora. As the community comes 
together to celebrate his life and legacy, I am grateful for his vast 
impact on our commonwealth and his fellow Pennsylvanians.
  Mr. Speaker, Rhys Taylor Frost dedicated his life to the people of 
Donora. His legacy is an example of a selfless and inspiring life. On 
behalf of the people of Pennsylvania's 14th Congressional District, I 
wish his family healing during this difficult time.
