CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
WHEREAS, Kay Cross has been recognized with the 2011 Jane
O. Burns Award by the YWCA of Lubbock for her longtime service to
that respected community institution; and
WHEREAS, The YWCA of Lubbock is dedicated to empowering women
and their families, promoting women leaders, and establishing
strong role models for the next generation of South Plains women,
and all of these goals have been furthered by the contributions of
Kay Cross during her tenure as finance director; joining the YWCA in
1986, when the agency was operating with 15 employees on a $300,000
budget, she now provides fiscal management to an organization with
more than 250 employees and a budget of $5 million; and
WHEREAS, Ms. Cross utilizes her expertise to handle the funds
that support the YWCA, tracking spending and reporting on the
activities of 14 initiatives, including those that serve children
with special needs and with emotional and behavioral challenges and
those that promote women's health; going above and beyond her
financial duties, she also maintains positive relationships with
staff, customers, vendors, and community volunteers; and
WHEREAS, Known for her humility, dedication, and strong work
ethic, Ms. Cross consistently meets challenges with a smile and a
can-do attitude, and she inspires others with her warmth and sense
of caring; she stands at the forefront of those individuals who are
making a difference in their communities, and she is indeed
deserving of special recognition; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the 82nd Legislature of the State of Texas
hereby congratulate Kay Cross on her receipt of the Jane O. Burns
Award from the YWCA of Lubbock and extend to her sincere best wishes
for the future; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for Ms. Cross as an expression of high regard by the Texas
House of Representatives and Senate.
