||
WHEREAS, May 28, 2021, marks the 61st wedding anniversary of | ||
Ruben and Naomi Garcia of Laredo, and this joyous event provides a | ||
fitting opportunity to reflect on their rewarding journey together | ||
as husband and wife; and | ||
WHEREAS, Ruben Garcia and the former Maria Naomi Peña were | ||
joined in matrimony in 1960 at Holy Redeemer Catholic Church in | ||
Laredo; over the years, they have been blessed with a treasured | ||
family that includes their children, Maya, Celina, Gabriela, and | ||
Guillermo, as well as their grandchildren, James, Andrea, Cristina, | ||
Nicolas, Victoria, and Matthew, and great-grandchildren, Ava and | ||
Levi; and | ||
WHEREAS, Respected members of their community, Mr. and | ||
Mrs. Garcia have devoted their careers to serving their fellow | ||

School of Law in 1958, Mr. Garcia joined the U.S. Army Reserve, and | ||
in 1959, he passed the Texas State Bar exam; he began a law practice | ||
in 1960, and he went on to become the Webb County Attorney in 1977; | ||
he was subsequently elected as the 49th District Court Judge, and he | ||
served in that position for eight years before returning to the | ||
practice of law in 1988 and retiring in 1995; Mrs. Garcia graduated | ||
from Texas Woman's University in 1958, and that same year, she began | ||
teaching at her alma mater, Ursuline Academy; she enjoyed a long | ||
tenure with the Laredo Independent School District until her | ||
retirement in 1994; and | ||
WHEREAS, The more than six decades of marriage that Mr. and | ||
Mrs. Garcia have shared is eloquent affirmation of the meaning of | ||
love and commitment, and their enduring union is an inspiration to | ||
all who know them; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 87th Texas | ||
Legislature hereby congratulate Ruben and Naomi Garcia on their | ||
61st wedding anniversary and extend to them sincere best wishes for | ||
continued happiness; and, be it further | ||
