R E S O L U T I O N
 
         WHEREAS, Citizens from across the Lone Star State are
  gathering at the Capitol on May 6, 2013, for the Peace Officers'
  Memorial Ceremony, held in honor of those brave men and women who
  have lost their lives in the line of duty; and
         WHEREAS, Texans everywhere are indebted to members of the law
  enforcement profession who, by their selfless devotion to the
  public welfare, have enabled us to enjoy the benefits of a peaceful
  and orderly society; and
         WHEREAS, Too seldom recognized and sometimes taken for
  granted by the public they so faithfully serve, these intrepid
  individuals daily risk their lives in order to preserve domestic
  tranquility and to protect their fellow residents; and
         WHEREAS, Sergeant Mark Luis Scianna of the Bexar County
  Constable's Office, Precinct 3, earned the respect and admiration
  of his peers for his commitment to serving the greater good, and his 
  contributions will not soon be forgotten; and
         WHEREAS, Throughout his tenure, which spanned 28 years,
  Sergeant Scianna demonstrated the loyalty, courage, and
  self-sacrifice that are consistent with the highest ideals of the
  law enforcement profession; and
         WHEREAS, Killed in the line of duty on August 27, 2011, at the
  age of 49, Sergeant Scianna will long be missed by his family, his
  fellow peace officers, and the entire community; and
         WHEREAS, Though his life ended far too soon, Sergeant Scianna
  left behind a notable legacy that will forever be honored by those
  who follow in this difficult but essential profession; now,
  therefore, be it
         RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 83rd Texas
  Legislature hereby pay tribute to the life of Sergeant Mark Luis
  Scianna of the Bexar County Constable's Office, Precinct 3, and
  extend deepest sympathy to his relatives, friends, and fellow
  officers; and, be it further
         RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
  prepared for his family and that when the Texas House of
  Representatives adjourns this day, it do so in memory of Sergeant
  Scianna.
