                    in the house of representatives

                     Wednesday, September 18, 2024

  Mr. CARL. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor and remember a dear 
friend, Dr. Shelia Ross who passed away on September 13 after a hard-
fought battle of cancer. As the Director of The University of South 
Alabama Health Stroke Program, Dr. Ross was focused on working with 
other health officials and community members on advocating for brain 
health and stroke care. She used every opportunity to educate the 
residents of Mobile about the functions of the brain, in specific 
relation to strokes. I am honored to have had such a courageous 
individual and friend residing in and helping the people of the First 
District of Alabama, and we will miss her greatly.
