Mr. Speaker, Chris Cramp was a man who chose compassion not as an occasional act but as a daily calling. Across every corner of our community, he was known not only for what he did but for how he did it. With an unwavering commitment to lifting up those most in need, he was, in every sense of the word, a guardian of the vulnerable. To the homeless, to those struggling with mental health challenges, Chris was a lifeline. He met people in their lowest moments and helped them chart a path back to hope and dignity. Even in his final moments as Thomas struggled, Chris and his son, David, did what they have always done: They responded with love. In their courageous attempt to save him, they gave their own lives, a sacrifice that speaks to the very core of who they are as human beings.
