REMEMBERING JACK CLAMPIT, JR.
Mr. CASSIDY. Mr. President, I rise to pay tribute to Jack
Clampit, Jr., who recently passed away on May 7, 2025.
Jack was born on September 26, 1949, in Monroe, LA, and graduated
from West Monroe High School in 1966. After graduating high school, he
began his own creosote plant before helping establish two more
businesses focused on selling copiers and computers. Jack was fortunate
to enjoy 48 years of marriage to his loving wife Debbie Frith Clampit,
a union that produced two daughters, two grandchildren, and four great-
grandchildren.
Jack was known in his community as a reliable friend and a strong
leader. He served as vice president of the Ouachita Parish Police Jury
for two terms. Along with founding the Bawcomville Redneck Christmas
Parade and Crawfish Craze Barrel Race, Jack was also a member of the
library board, volunteer committee for the Rivercity Longbeards, and
the North Louisiana Economic Partnership.
Jack Clampit, Jr.'s commitment to his community is nothing short of
inspiring. His efforts made Ouachita Parish and all of our State a
better place. On behalf of the people of Louisiana, I extend my
heartfelt condolences to the Clampit family.
