English/Español: Rubio, Scott Honor Life of Jereima “Jeri” Bustamante on 4th Anniversary of Her Passing
Washington, D.C. — U.S. Senators Marco Rubio (R-FL) and Rick Scott (R-FL) introduced a resolution honoring the memory of Jereima ‘‘Jeri’’ Bustamante, Senator Scott’s former press secretary, who passed away in a tragic accident four years ago.
“Jeri Bustamante’s passing was an incredibly tragic loss,” Rubio said. “Jeri was kind and respectful to everyone, and was a true inspiration to all who knew her. I continue to honor her incredible legacy and contributions to our state.”
“Today marks four years since the tragic and sudden loss of my friend, Spanish teacher and long-time press secretary, Jeri Bustamante,” Scott said. “To her friends, family, colleagues and loved ones – that’s four years of missing her magnetic personality and incredible talent. Four years of an impossible-to-fill gap in the hearts of so many. Jeri’s smile and laughter was wonderfully contagious and lit up every room. Today, that’s what is in our hearts and minds. Over the years we worked together, traveling the state, practicing Spanish and meeting Floridians, Jeri inspired those around her to be the best we could be and make the most out of any situation. She knew the value of hard work, determination and being kind to others, never hesitating to lend a helping hand. Every day as I practice my Spanish, I think of Jeri and hope that I’m making her proud, knowing that she pushed me to learn. I hope that as she looks down on us now, she knows the impact she made on our team and those who had the honor of knowing her. And I hope that she knows how much we miss her. It is with a heavy heart that we honor Jeri Bustamante today, and recognize her far too short, but incredibly meaningful life.”
Washington, D.C. — Los senadores estadounidenses Marco Rubio (R-FL) y Rick Scott (R-FL) presentaron una resolución en honor a la memoria de Jereima “Jeri” Bustamante, la exsecretaria de prensa del senador Scott, quien falleció en un trágico accidente hace cuatro años.
“La partida de Jeri Bustamante fue una pérdida increíblemente trágica”, Rubio dijo. “Jeri fue amable y respetuosa con todos, y fue una verdadera inspiración para todos los que la conocieron. Sigo honrando su increíble legado y sus contribuciones a nuestro estado”.
“Hoy se cumplen cuatro años desde la trágica y repentina pérdida de mi amiga, profesora de español y Secretaria de Prensa durante mucho tiempo, Jeri Bustamante”, Scott dijo. “Para sus amigos, familiares, colegas y seres queridos: son cuatro años de extrañar su personalidad magnética y su increíble talento. Cuatro años de un vacío imposible de llenar en el corazón de tantos. La sonrisa y la risa de Jeri fueron maravillosamente contagiosas e iluminaron cada habitación. Hoy, eso es lo que está en nuestros corazones y mentes. A lo largo de los años que trabajamos juntos, viajando por el estado, practicando español y conociendo floridanos, Jeri inspiró a quienes la rodeaban a ser lo mejor que podíamos ser y aprovechar al máximo cualquier situación. Sabía el valor del trabajo duro, la determinación y ser amable con los demás, sin dudar nunca en echar una mano. Todos los días, mientras practico mi español, pienso en Jeri y espero hacerla sentir orgullosa, sabiendo que ella me empujó a aprender. Espero que mientras nos ve desde arriba, sepa el impacto que tuvo en nuestro equipo y en aquellos que tuvieron el honor de conocerla. Y espero que ella sepa cuánto la extrañamos. Es con gran pesar que hoy honramos a Jeri Bustamante y reconocemos su vida demasiado corta, pero increíblemente significativa”.
