WHEREAS, The passing of Tommy Edmondson of Arlington on | ||

loved ones and his many friends, former students, and admirers; and | ||
WHEREAS, Coach Ed, or "Ched" as he was affectionately known, | ||
encouraged and influenced countless young people throughout his | ||
35-year career as a teacher, coach, and mentor with the Arlington | ||
Independent School District, the last 15 of which he spent coaching | ||
his favorite sport--girls softball--at Arlington High School; and | ||
WHEREAS, He was devoted to his family and to his | ||
student-athletes, and he will always be remembered for his | ||
enthusiasm, his integrity, and his engaging smile; and | ||

world as they move through it, and the contributions of Coach | ||
Edmondson will long resonate in the lives of all who knew him; now, | ||
therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 83rd Texas | ||

Representatives adjourns this day, it do so in memory of Thomas | ||
Carson Edmondson, Jr. | ||
