HONORING THE LIFE AND LEGACY OF SERGIO RAMOS

Congressional Record, Volume 172 Issue 41 (Wednesday, March 4, 2026) [Congressional Record Volume 172, Number 41 (Wednesday, March 4, 2026)] [Extensions of Remarks] [Page E188] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] HONORING THE LIFE AND LEGACY OF SERGIO RAMOS ______ HON. BRIAN BABIN of texas in the house of representatives Wednesday, March 4, 2026 Mr. BABIN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the life and legacy of my dear friend, Sergio Ramos, who went to be with our Lord on Saturday, December 27, 2025. Sergio was born on March 26, 1943, to Job and Ofelia Ramos in Tampico, Mexico. He loved this Nation deeply and took great pride in becoming a United States citizen on April 30, 1970. It is never easy to say goodbye, especially to someone who was a friend to everyone and such a pillar of the community. Throughout his life, Sergio positively impacted countless individuals through his faith, service, and generosity. He was also among the very first to welcome me to Tyler County and the first to invite me to his beloved First Baptist Church, a reflection of the warmth and kindness he extended to everyone he met. A man devoted to God and to others, Sergio led music in groups large and small in other local churches and on numerous mission trips. It was not uncommon for him to pick up his guitar and fill a room with song. He taught Spanish, coached tennis for decades, and dedicated himself to mentoring generations of students and athletes. In recognition of his outstanding and lasting contributions, he was inducted into the Texas Tennis Coaches Hall of Fame, received the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Woodville Letterman's Club, and was named Citizen of the Year of Tyler County. Sergio Ramos leaves behind a legacy of faith, service, and compassion that will long endure. I will deeply miss singing alongside him in our church choir and in our men's group, The Generations. Yet, all who knew him take much comfort in knowing that Sergio now sings in a greater, glorious and eternal choir. ____________________
