                        Tuesday, August 5, 2025

  Ms. DAVIDS of Kansas. Mr Speaker, I rise today to honor Deputy Elijah 
Ming, who gave his life to serving his community.
  Deputy Ming began serving with the Wyandotte County Sheriff's Office 
on October 13, 2016. In his nine years with the Office, he worked in 
the Detention Center for six years, spent two years on Patrol, and 
spent one year in Court Transport. He was truly everything good you 
would want in both a law enforcement officer and in a friend. He was 
always willing to step in for voluntary overtime and to lend a helping 
hand. Deputy Ming's work with the department ensured the safety and 
wellbeing of Wyandotte County residents. Our community mourns the loss 
of Deputy Ming and will miss the bright, positive attitude he brought 
to the Office. He was a true patriot and a shining example of courage 
and dedication.
