H.R. No. 1384 |
|
||
WHEREAS, Words cannot fully express the heartache felt by the | ||
family and friends of Layla Marie Salazar of Uvalde, who passed away | ||
on May 24, 2022, at the age of 11; and | ||
WHEREAS, Layla Salazar was born in Elgin, Illinois, on | ||
September 19, 2010, to Vincent Salazar III and Melinda Alejandro; | ||
she enjoyed the companionship of two brothers, Julian and Nicholas, | ||
and she was further cherished by her grandparents and | ||
great-grandparents as well as a host of aunts, uncles, and cousins; | ||
and | ||
WHEREAS, Layla was a high-spirited young girl who took | ||
advantage of any opportunity to sing and dance; though energetic | ||
and sometimes rambunctious, she was also respectful of her elders, | ||
and she was the first to greet relatives, friends, and guests who | ||
visited the family's home; her competitive nature shined in many | ||
different activities such as swimming and running, and she beamed | ||
with pride when she took home six first-place ribbons from her | ||
school's field day; and | ||
WHEREAS, Although the passing of Layla Salazar is an | ||
incalculable loss to all those who held her dear, they may find | ||
comfort in knowing that their lives have been forever enriched by | ||
the love, laughter, and kindness she shared with them; now, | ||
therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 88th Texas | ||
Legislature hereby pay tribute to the memory of Layla Marie Salazar | ||
and extend heartfelt condolences to the members of her family: to | ||
her parents, Vincent Salazar III and Melinda Alejandro; to her | ||
brothers, Julian and Nicholas Salazar; to her grandparents, Lisa | ||
and Roberto Alejandro and Vincent and Alma Salazar; to her | ||
great-grandparents, Mary and Joe Deleon, Romualda Alejandro, | ||
Consuelo Salazar, and Alicia Alejandro; to her aunts, uncles, | ||
cousins, and friends; and to the countless others in Uvalde and | ||
beyond who mourn her passing; and, be it further | ||
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be | ||
prepared for her family and that when the Texas House of | ||
Representatives adjourns this day, it do so in memory of Layla Marie | ||
Salazar. | ||
King of Uvalde | ||
