HONORING DEPUTY CAILEE CAMPBELL DURING NATIONAL POLICE WEEK
(Ms. Tenney of New York was recognized to address the House for 5
minutes.)
Ms. TENNEY. Mr. Speaker, in honor of Police Week, I would like to
remember two police officers who paid the ultimate sacrifice in the
line of duty.
I rise today in solemn recognition of Deputy Cailee Campbell of the
Oswego County Sheriff's Office.
Deputy Campbell began her career in law enforcement with the Onondaga
County Sheriff's Office as a corrections officer before attending the
Syracuse Police Academy. In April 2023, she joined the Oswego County
Sheriff's Office as a patrol deputy.
Tragically, while en route to a call on the morning of September 25,
2024, Deputy Campbell's life was cut short when her patrol vehicle was
T-boned in an intersection. Following the crash, she was transported to
Oswego Hospital where she was tragically pronounced deceased. She was
just 33 years old.
Deputy Campbell leaves behind a loving father, brother, and extended
family, as well as her boyfriend, a close-knit group of friends,
colleagues, and two beloved cats.
She will be remembered for her love of hiking, personal fitness,
traveling to new places and having new experiences, and spending time
at the range. Her memory lives on through all those who knew her and
whose lives she impacted.
On behalf of the people of New York's 24th Congressional District, it
is my honor to share a little bit about Deputy Campbell's life and
legacy, and express my appreciation, and the appreciation of my
constituents, for her service to her community, and condolences to all
who loved and cared for Deputy Campbell.
Honoring Sergeant Thomas A. Sanfratello During National Police Week
Ms. TENNEY. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in solemn recognition of
Sergeant Thomas A. Sanfratello of the Genesee County Sheriff's Office.
Sergeant Sanfratello faithfully served his beloved community as a
police officer for 32 years, was twice recognized as Officer of the
Year, and was heavily involved with the New York State Sheriffs'
Association, Stop-DWI program, and Shop With a Cop programs. He was
also a town board member and former volunteer firefighter.
Tragically, in the early morning hours of March 10, 2024, Sergeant
Sanfratello was killed after being attacked while responding to a call.
Sergeant Sanfratello truly embodied what it means to be a public
servant, having made the ultimate sacrifice in the name of protecting
others. He leaves behind a close-knit family, including a wife and
three children, as well as countless friends and colleagues.
Sergeant Sanfratello will be remembered for his love of family and
spending quality time with his children, his passion for his community,
as well as his love of sports, Motorama, and his collection of LEGOs
and Hot Wheels. His memory lives on through all those who knew him and
whose lives have been changed for the better because of his sacrifice
and his service.
On behalf of the people of New York's 24th Congressional District, it
is my honor to have shared a little bit about Sergeant Sanfratello's
life and his legacy and express my deep appreciation and the
appreciation of my constituents for his services to his community. I
send my condolences to his friends and family.
