|
||
| WHEREAS, An inspiring couple whose lives have been enhanced | ||
| by a great and enduring love, Kevin and Linda Hirt of St. Lawrence | ||
| celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary on January 17, 2012; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Kevin Hirt and the former Linda Newman met while | ||
| attending Sul Ross State University in Alpine; they were united in | ||
| matrimony at St. Lawrence Catholic Church in Garden City in 1987, | ||
| and the wedding day was filled with surprises, as a massive ice | ||
| storm engulfed the region and the bride was sprayed by a skunk; | ||
| following their nuptials, the couple went on to build their home in | ||
| a cotton field and to establish a successful cotton farming | ||
| enterprise; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Respected members of their community, Mr. and Mrs. | ||
| Hirt have remained valued members of St. Lawrence Catholic Church, | ||
| and they have served on numerous church boards and organizations | ||
| and assisted with parish fund-raisers; in addition, they have been | ||
| active in school groups, helped with FFA shows, and coached Little | ||
| League teams; Mrs. Hirt's involvement in the local community has | ||
| also included volunteering as a Girl Scout leader and a YMCA | ||
| basketball coach, while Mr. Hirt has served as a member of the | ||
| Glasscock County School Board, the Cotton Growers Board, and the | ||
| Knights of Columbus; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Over the years, their family has grown to include | ||
| three daughters, Julie Dawn Hirt Spittler, Melissa Gayle Hirt, and | ||
| Rachel Elizabeth Hirt, as well as a granddaughter, Avery Elizabeth | ||
| Spittler, and a son-in-law, "Trey" Spittler; and | ||
| WHEREAS, While innumerable changes have taken place in the | ||
| world during the past 25 years, this devoted husband and wife have | ||
| remained constant in their commitment to each other, and the | ||
| strength of their love has enabled them to meet life's challenges | ||
| and opportunities with grace and optimism; now, therefore, be it | ||
| RESOLVED, That the 83rd Legislature of the State of Texas | ||
| hereby congratulate Kevin and Linda Hirt on their 25th wedding | ||
| anniversary and extend to them sincere best wishes for continued | ||
| happiness; and, be it further | ||
| RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be | ||
| prepared for Mr. and Mrs. Hirt as an expression of high regard by | ||
| the Texas House of Representatives and Senate. | ||
