R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, June 30, 2011, marks the 50th wedding anniversary of
Billy and Jo McGuyer of Mineola, and this joyous event provides a
fitting opportunity to reflect on their memorable journey together
as husband and wife; and
WHEREAS, Billy Frank McGuyer and the former Lawana Jo Brooks
were joined in matrimony in 1961 at a ceremony held in Dallas, the
city where they resided for most of their married life; through the
years, their family has grown to include two daughters, Elizabeth
Dian Morgan and her husband, Greg, and the late Mary Catherine
Porter, as well as four grandchildren, Michael Ryan Peterman,
Liberty Lane Peterman, Lewis Jean Jett III, and Angela Catherine
Porter; and
WHEREAS, Mr. McGuyer recently received his 40-year
certificate as a certified public accountant; he worked for several
independent oil companies, and was employed by independent oilman
Buddy Fogelson and his wife, actress Greer Garson, for more than two
decades; he also owned and operated a tax preparation business in
Mineola; and
WHEREAS, A veteran educator, Mrs. McGuyer taught
kindergarten and third grade for many years before running her own
beauty salon and, later, a formal dress shop; after the couple moved
to Mineola in 1993, she opened a prekindergarten school for two
years; and
WHEREAS, Respected members of their community, Mr. and Mrs.
McGuyer are both active in Republican politics; Mr. McGuyer was a
party precinct chair for many years while also serving as treasurer
of the Wood County Republican Party, and Mrs. McGuyer is a committed
member of the Republican Women of Wood County; in addition, she
belongs to the Daughters of the American Revolution and the Fannie
Marchman Garden Club of Mineola; and
WHEREAS, The 50 years of marriage that Mr. and Mrs. McGuyer
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 82nd Texas
Legislature hereby congratulate Billy and Jo McGuyer on their
golden wedding anniversary and extend to them sincere best wishes
for continued happiness; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
