By: Johnson | H.R. No. 160 |
|
||
WHEREAS, The 95th birthday of an esteemed Texan is indeed | ||
cause for celebration, and Lovie Mae Walker Kazee of Dallas is | ||
commemorating that special day in her life on July 1, 2011; and | ||
WHEREAS, Born in Hearne in 1916 to Bob and Gertie Walker, the | ||
former Lovie Mae Walker married Lueranze Kazee in 1932, and the | ||
couple went on to have 10 children and to share more than 67 years | ||
together; the family moved to Dallas in 1944, and Mrs. Kazee began | ||
work as a nanny and housekeeper for the Richard Gump family, serving | ||
in that capacity for more than half a century; she retired in 1997 | ||
to care for her husband, who passed away in 1999; and | ||
WHEREAS, Mrs. Kazee attributes her longevity to staying | ||
physically active and abstaining from alcohol and tobacco as well | ||
as to her strong faith; a member of the Dallas West Church of | ||
Christ, she is one of the eight original founding members of that | ||
congregation, which was established in 1947; and | ||
WHEREAS, In all of her endeavors, Mrs. Kazee enjoys the | ||
support of a large and loving family that has grown to | ||
include 27 grandchildren, 78 great-grandchildren, 138 | ||
great-great-grandchildren, and 3 great-great-great-grandchildren; | ||
and | ||
WHEREAS, This proud matriarch is a source of tremendous | ||
inspiration to five generations of descendants, and in sharing the | ||
experience she has gained through 95 years of life well lived, she | ||
bestows a precious gift of wisdom that benefits all who are | ||
fortunate enough to know her; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 82nd Texas | ||
Legislature, 1st Called Session, hereby congratulate Lovie Mae | ||
Walker Kazee on the joyous occasion of her 95th 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. Kazee as an expression of high regard by the Texas | ||
House of Representatives. |
