HONORING JASON HUGHES

HONORING JASON HUGHES

Congressional Record, Volume 172 Issue 49 (Wednesday, March 18, 2026) [Congressional Record Volume 172, Number 49 (Wednesday, March 18, 2026)] [House] [Page H2586] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] HONORING JASON HUGHES (Mr. CLYDE asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.) Mr. CLYDE. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to the life and legacy of North Hall High School teacher and coach, Jason Hughes. Mr. Hughes was more than just a teacher. He was a beloved mentor and role model. From heading the math department and educating students in the classroom to coaching multiple teams and leading Bible studies, Jason met every opportunity with a simple, yet thoughtful, question: How can I serve you better? Jason's service-driven life made an unforgettable impact on countless students, athletes, parents, and teachers throughout the North Hall community. In addition to his passion for serving others, Jason was known as a devoted husband, loving father, and a man of deep faith. Tragically, a terrible accident cut his remarkable life short too soon. I extend my deepest condolences to his wife, Laura, and their two sons, Owen and Luke, during this unimaginably difficult time. I ask that we continue to pray for comfort and healing over his loved ones and the North Hall community. Mr. Speaker, may we take comfort in knowing that Jason is with our Heavenly Father, who welcomed him home with the words: Well done, good and faithful servant. ``Soli Deo Gloria''; ``To God alone be the glory.'' ____________________
