	R E S O L U T I O N
	WHEREAS, The thousands of deaths caused by COVID-19 in Texas
	have created a tremendous void in families, communities, and
	workplaces throughout the state; among those who lost their lives
	in the pandemic was Jimmy Garcia, a dedicated and well-respected
	employee of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, who passed
	away on April 15, 2021, at the age of 56; and
	WHEREAS, A proud veteran, Mr. Garcia served in the U.S.
	Marine Corps for 15 years before joining TDCJ, and over the course
	of his career with the agency, he was employed as a correctional
	officer at the Neal and Clements Units; in his leisure hours, he
	enjoyed fishing, working on cars, and doing carpentry projects;
	moreover, he often gave freely of his time and expertise to help his
	colleagues and loved ones; and
	WHEREAS, Jimmy Garcia faithfully and ably performed his
	duties throughout his tenure with the Texas Department of Criminal
	Justice, and he will long be remembered with great admiration by all
	who were privileged to know him; now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 87th Texas
	Legislature, 2nd Called Session, hereby pay tribute to the life of
	Jimmy Garcia and extend deepest sympathy to his family, friends,
	and colleagues; 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 Jimmy
	Garcia.
