	R E S O L U T I O N

	WHEREAS, The family and many friends of Cooper Wayne
	Ballinger of China, Texas, have suffered an immeasurable loss with
	the passing of this special little boy on August 1, 2017, at the age
	of seven; and
	WHEREAS, The beloved son of Ashley and James "Jimbo"
	Ballinger, Cooper was born on January 13, 2010, in The Woodlands; he
	was a student at China Elementary School, where he excelled
	academically and endeared himself to peers and teachers alike
	through his kind and caring nature; and
	WHEREAS, Blessed with a zest for life and a smile that could
	light up any room, Cooper undertook every endeavor with great
	passion and zeal; he enjoyed coloring, drawing, reading, and
	hunting and could often be found dancing and singing at the top of
	his lungs; and
	WHEREAS, Although the loss of one so full of promise brings
	tremendous heartache, Cooper Ballinger brightened the lives of all
	around him, and those who held him dear may find comfort in
	remembering the joy and enthusiasm with which he lived his life;
	now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 85th Texas
	Legislature, 1st Called Session, hereby pay tribute to the memory
	of Cooper Wayne Ballinger and extend heartfelt sympathy to the
	members of his family: to his parents, Ashley and Jimbo Ballinger;
	to his brothers, Jackson and Sawyer Ballinger; to his grandparents,
	Kim and Paul Goodeaux and Doris Ballinger; to his uncle, Keith
	Goodeaux, and his wife, Jill; to his aunts, Robin Williams and her
	husband, Jeremy, and Lynett Howe; to his cousins, Bryn Goodeaux,
	Shelby Roberts, Jacob and Taylor Bandy, and Gabby and Drew Howe; and
	to his other relatives and all those who mourn his passing; 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 Cooper
	Ballinger.

	Phelan
