WHEREAS, Citizens from across the Lone Star State are | ||
gathering at the State Capitol on May 4, 2015, 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, Lieutenant Clay D. Crabb of the Austin Police | ||
Department 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 18 years and 10 | ||
months, Lieutenant Crabb 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 Wednesday, October 16, | ||
2013, at the age of 42, Lieutenant Crabb will long be missed by his | ||
family, his fellow peace officers, and the entire community; and | ||
WHEREAS, Though his life ended far too soon, Lieutenant Crabb | ||
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 84th Texas | ||
Legislature hereby pay tribute to the life of Lieutenant Clay D. | ||
Crabb of the Austin Police Department 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 Lieutenant | ||
Clay D. Crabb. |
