  with the passing of Gerald Lee Roseberg on January 7, 2023, at the
  age of 82; and
         WHEREAS, The only child of Leonard and Lucille Roseberg,
  Garry Roseberg was born in McPherson, Kansas, on April 7, 1940; he
  grew up on the family farm, attended a one-room school, and sang in
  the choir at New Gottland Lutheran Church, where he formed many
  enduring friendships; as a high school student in McPherson, he met
  the love of his life, the former Judy Scott, and after numerous
  dates at the A&W, they married in 1961; the couple were blessed with
  two daughters, Karla and Kristi; and
         WHEREAS, Mr. Roseberg worked as a cast iron welder, and in
  the mid-1960s, he was transferred to Greenville, Mississippi; after
  four years, the family moved to Corpus Christi, where Mr. Roseberg
  was employed at Coastal States Refinery; he found great
  satisfaction in his career and went on to serve as a shift
  supervisor at Valero until his retirement in 2006; along the way, he
  developed a sideline mowing lawns, just as his parents had in their
  later years; and
         WHEREAS, A man of strong faith, Mr. Roseberg served Calallen
  Baptist Church as a deacon and member of the building and grounds
  committee; he maintained the church lawn, volunteered whenever
  needed, and regularly attended Sunday school and the men's Bible
  study; in addition, he enjoyed singing with the choir; he was also a
  32nd degree Mason and member of Masonic Lodge No. 189 in Corpus
  Christi; in his leisure hours, he liked baking pumpkin pies,
  playing with his Dachshunds, and helping out family and friends; he
  took pride in his Swedish heritage and savored the traditional
  dessert, ostakaka; above all, he treasured spending time with his
  loved ones and relished his role as "G-pa" to four grandchildren and
  four great-grandchildren, the beneficiaries of numerous bear hugs;
  and
         WHEREAS, Although Garry Roseberg is deeply missed by those he
  left behind, they will cherish their memories of his warmth,
  kindness, and devotion, and he will forever hold a special place in
  their hearts; now, therefore, be it
         RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 88th Texas
  Legislature hereby pay tribute to the life of Gerald Lee Roseberg
  and extend sincere sympathy to the members of his family: to his
  wife, Judy Roseberg; to his daughters, Karla Harris and her
  husband, Charlie, and Kristi Skrobarczyk and her husband, Joe; to
  his grandchildren, Eddie Joe, Ryan, Gabe, and Dee; to his
  great-grandchildren, Emma, Sadie, Connor, and Maggie; and to his
  other relatives and friends; and, be it further
         RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
  prepared for his family and that when the Texas House of
  Representatives adjourns this day, it do so in memory of Garry
  Roseberg.
