H.R. No. 1516 |
|
||
WHEREAS, The 90th birthday of an esteemed Texan is indeed | ||
cause for celebration, and Eloise Holder of Waco reached that | ||
impressive milestone on April 17, 2011; and | ||
WHEREAS, Eloise McKamie was born in Moody in 1921, the ninth | ||
child of William Henry and Nancy Ida McKamie; as a young woman, she | ||
moved to Waco, where she met and married Fraser C. Holder, a soldier | ||
stationed at Blackland Army Air Field; and | ||
WHEREAS, Mrs. Holder and her husband operated the Stadium | ||
Drive-In Grocery, named for its proximity to the Baylor University | ||
football stadium; the store became best known for Mrs. Holder's | ||
mouthwatering hamburgers, which were dubbed by regulars as the | ||
"Holder Hamburger"; they were a favorite of residents of Waco, as | ||
well as out-of-town Bears fans who made the Stadium Drive-In part of | ||
their game-day ritual; Mrs. Holder and her husband retired after | ||
nearly 50 years in business; and | ||
WHEREAS, In addition to being the woman behind the Stadium | ||
Drive-In Grocery's famous burgers, Eloise Holder has made a | ||
positive difference in the lives of many people, and it is a | ||
pleasure to join her loved ones in honoring her on this memorable | ||
occasion; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 82nd Texas | ||
Legislature hereby congratulate Eloise Holder on her 90th birthday | ||
and extend to her sincere best wishes for continued happiness; and, | ||
be it further | ||
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be | ||
prepared for Mrs. Holder as an expression of high regard by the | ||
Texas House of Representatives. | ||
