	H.R. No. 392



	R E S O L U T I O N
	WHEREAS, The certain knowledge of a life well lived may
	comfort those saddened by the passing of Susan M. Jones of Arlington
	on October 7, 2009, at the age of 53; and
	WHEREAS, A native of Houston, the former Susan Jordy was born
	on November 22, 1955, to Donald and Dorothy Jordy and grew up with
	the companionship of a brother, Donnie; and
	WHEREAS, She later married Bobby Jones, with whom she enjoyed
	a rewarding marriage, and she had the pleasure of seeing her family
	grow to include three children and a grandson; and
	WHEREAS, Mrs. Jones taught at a number of schools in the
	Arlington Independent School District, including Carter Junior
	High and Starrett Elementary, before spending the last seven years
	of her career teaching seventh-grade English at Barnett Junior
	High, where her husband was also a faculty member; over the course
	of three decades in the classroom, this remarkable woman ensured
	that her students mastered the skills and knowledge they needed to
	succeed; she volunteered her time to tutor young people on her lunch
	break and after school and rewarded academic progress with praise
	as well as cupcakes and other homemade treats; and
	WHEREAS, Though her time on this earth ended much too soon,
	Susan Jones inspired countless people with her dedication and her
	heartfelt concern for others, and memories of the happy times spent
	in her company will forever be held dear by all who had the good
	fortune to know her; now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 82nd Texas
	Legislature hereby pay tribute to the life of Susan M. Jones and
	extend sincere condolences to the members of her family: to her
	husband, Bobby Jones; to her daughter, Rachel Benedict; to her son,
	Trey Benedict; to her stepdaughter, Amanda Jones; to her grandson,
	Houston Carr; to her mother, Dorothy Holtman; to her father, Donald
	Jordy; to her brother, Donnie Jordy, and his wife, Cindy; to her
	parents-in-law, Bob and Helen Jones; to her nephews, Matthew and
	Garrett Simpson; to her aunts and uncles, Diana and Ronald
	Ellermann and Frank and Peggy Hoot; and to her other relatives and
	many friends; and, be it further
	RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
	prepared for her family and that when the Texas House of
	Representatives adjourns this day, it do so in memory of Susan
	Jones.

	Patrick
