Mr. WENSTRUP. Madam Speaker, I rise to honor fallen Springdale police officer and hero Kaia Grant, who gave her life in the line of duty. Growing up in Wyoming, Ohio, friends, family, and peers knew Officer Grant was destined for greatness. Officer Grant exemplified the best of what our nation has to offer--commitment to fighting for justice and protecting our people. She was a dedicated public servant who lost her life trying to help others. The loss of Officer Grant is deeply felt in Wyoming, in Springdale, and across Hamilton County. Community members have displayed blue hearts on their front doors in memory of her and in solidarity with the Springdale Police Department. I pray that God will bring comfort to Officer Grant's family, to the law enforcement community, and to all those in the Hamilton County community grieving her loss. While God has called Kaia Grant away from us, the positive impact of her service shall never die. God bless.
