||
WHEREAS, Over the course of some 60 years, Pat Stone has | ||
played an indispensable role in keeping the children of Lewisville | ||
safe on their way to and from school; and | ||
WHEREAS, A lifelong resident of Lewisville, Ms. Stone helped | ||
lead the effort to establish crossing guards for local schools | ||
after becoming concerned about students negotiating the traffic on | ||
area streets; she recruited assistance from a state trooper to | ||
learn the details of the job and soon began service as the first | ||
crossing guard in the city's history; and | ||
WHEREAS, Ms. Stone has continued her dedicated efforts | ||
through the years and has long served as a guard for Southridge | ||
Elementary School; today, six decades after beginning her duties, | ||
she is still safeguarding students; in recognition of her | ||
exceptional efforts, the City of Lewisville Facebook group declared | ||
that May 1 will be celebrated annually as Ms. Pat "the Crossing | ||
Guard" Appreciation Day; and | ||
WHEREAS, Through her deep commitment to the children of | ||
Lewisville, Pat Stone has earned the lasting respect and gratitude | ||
of area families and school personnel, and she may take justifiable | ||
pride in her important contributions; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 88th Texas | ||
Legislature hereby honor Pat Stone for her many years of service as | ||
a crossing guard in Lewisville and extend to her sincere best wishes | ||
for continued success in all her endeavors; and, be it further | ||
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be | ||
prepared for Ms. Stone as an expression of high regard by the Texas | ||
House of Representatives. | ||
