WHEREAS, Glenn Family Dental Clinic in Galveston is |
|
|
continuing its proud tradition of service to the community under |
|
|
the leadership of a new owner, Dr. Gilberto Garcia Jr.; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, For many years, Glenn Family Dental Clinic was owned |
|
|
and operated by Dr. William L. Glenn with assistance from his wife, |
|
|
Paula Glenn; two years ago, as the couple were setting their sights |
|
|
on retirement, a longtime colleague of Dr. Glenn recommended that |
|
|
he consider bringing Dr. Garcia, a promising new dental school |
|
|
graduate, into the practice; since then, Dr. Garcia has worked at |
|
|
the clinic under the tutelage of Dr. Glenn, who will continue |
|
|
practicing on a part-time basis; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, A native of Rio Grande City, Gilberto Garcia |
|
|
graduated summa cum laude from The University of Texas-Pan American |
|
|
with a degree in biology before earning his doctor of dental surgery |
|
|
degree from the UTHealth Houston School of Dentistry; he remained |
|
|
at UTHealth as he completed his general practice residency and |
|
|
acquired additional experience while volunteering there as a |
|
|
clinical assistant professor; during this time, he also worked |
|
|
part-time at a Houston dental office; since relocating to Galveston |
|
|
to join the staff of Glenn Family Dental Clinic, he has impressed |
|
|
Dr. Glenn with his strong work ethic, his deep concern for the |
|
|
clinic's patients, and his knowledge of the latest dental |
|
|
procedures and techniques; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Glenn Family Dental Clinic has long been a valuable |
|
|
resource to the Galveston community, and its legacy of |
|
|
compassionate service is in good hands with the transfer of |
|
|
ownership to Dr. Gilberto Garcia Jr.; now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 88th Texas |
|
|
Legislature hereby congratulate Dr. Gilberto Garcia Jr. on |
|
|
becoming the new owner of Glenn Family Dental Clinic and extend to |
|
|
him sincere best wishes for the future; and, be it further |
|
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
|
prepared for Dr. Garcia as an expression of high regard by the Texas |
|
|
House of Representatives. |
