“Mr. RULLI. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to Senator James E. Carnes, 84, of St. Clairsville, Ohio, who passed away on April 25, 2026. Born February 19, 1942, in Wheeling, West Virginia, he was the son of the late Edward A. and Avis E. Carnes. A lifelong Belmont County resident, Carnes graduated from Flushing High School in 1960 and dedicated his career to the Ohio coal industry, rising to President and later President-Emeritus of Cravat Coal Company after 57 years of service. He also owned and operated the Plaza Motel and Carnes Mobile Home and Appliances. He was a prominent figure in Ohio Republican politics for over five decades, serving as Belmont County GOP Chairman, on state and national party committees, and as a delegate to multiple conventions. He later served in the Ohio Senate from 1995 to 2004, representing southeastern Ohio and chairing key committees, including Energy and Finance. Following his Senate service, he was appointed Deputy Director of the Ohio Department of Natural Resources and later served on the Ohio Liquor Control Commission until 2025. Known for his pragmatic leadership and ability to work across party lines, he was widely respected for his service to Ohio. I invite my colleagues in the United States House of Representatives to join me in honoring Senator James E. Carnes. He will be remembered as a devoted family man, a man of faith, and a lifelong public servant. ____________________”

“Mr. RULLI. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to commemorate the life of Seymour Wyatt, Jr., a beloved constituent from Leetonia, Ohio, who passed away on March 20, 2026, at the age of 83. Born in Philippi, West Virginia, Mr. Wyatt served honorably in the United States Army from 1962 to 1965 and carried that same dedication into his work as a machinist, salesman, and security officer. A devoted husband, father, and grandfather, he shared more than 60 years of marriage with his wife, Audrey, and leaves behind a proud legacy of children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. A proud patriot, Mr. Wyatt often reached out to my office to share his deep love for this country and belief in its promise. He will be deeply missed, and his life of service and devotion will not be forgotten. I invite my colleagues in the United States House of Representatives to join me in honoring and remembering the life of Seymour Wyatt, Jr. ____________________”

“Mr. RULLI. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor and remember the life of Robert ``Bobby'' Douglas, an esteemed wrestler and coach who exemplified the grit and toughness that define what it means to be from eastern Ohio. Born in Bellaire, Ohio, Bobby attended Bridgeport High School, where he rose through the wrestling ranks, winning the Ohio 112-pound state title as a sophomore. As a senior, he captured the 127-pound title. His success in high school led him to West Liberty State College, where he won an NAIA championship and finished second at the NCAA Championships. After two years at West Liberty, he transferred to Oklahoma State, where he claimed the Big Eight Conference 147-pound title and helped the Cowboys secure the 1964 NCAA team championship. At the senior level, Bobby won three national freestyle championships. He competed as a featherweight at the 1964 and 1968 Olympic Games, placing fourth in 1964. His leadership and skill led him to captain the United States Olympic freestyle team at the 1968 Games. He earned a silver medal at the 1966 World Championships and a bronze medal at the 1970 World Championships. He retired from competition in 1970 with an extraordinary record of 303-17. Bobby's passion for wrestling and for developing the next generation of athletes was evident in his coaching at UC Santa Barbara, Arizona State University, and Iowa State University. He is one of only a handful of collegiate coaches to win more than 400 dual meets, and he won an NCAA team national title at Arizona State in 1988. He coached multiple United States Olympic teams and continued to cement his legacy as an all-time great by coaching Cael Sanderson to a gold medal in the 185-pound weight class at the 2004 Olympic Games. Bobby's coaching accomplishments include 13 NCAA champions, 110 All-America performances, and 68 conference titles. After his induction into the NAIA Wrestling Hall of Fame in 1985, Bobby rightfully earned his place in the National Wrestling Hall of Fame in 1987. I invite my colleagues in the United States House of Representatives to join me in honoring and remembering the life of Robert ``Bobby'' Douglas. ____________________”
