                       Tuesday, December 8, 2015

  Mr. FITZPATRICK. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Assistant 
Fire Chief John Izak of the Nottingham Fire Dept. for the swift action 
that saved the life of a 14-year-old boy who had collapsed on the 
soccer field. A trained first responder, Mr. Izak, was able to do the 
right thing at the right time. He assessed the patient, called 911, 
provided CPR and helped other responders with defibrillation that 
restarted the heart of Trevor Newhouse.
  All of these vital steps led to Trevor's quick diagnosis, treatment 
and recovery. The Newhouse family, and the entire 8th Congressional 
District, would like to thank Assistant Chief Izak for his life-saving 
work and dedication to our community. The greater community also 
acknowledges all of the first responders who helped in this incident. 
We appreciate your 24-7 commitment to the residents of Bucks County.
  John Izak's selflessness and quick thinking saved a young life. He 
has set a powerful example for others to follow.
