	H.R. No. 48



	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 Treva Preston, a dedicated and well-respected
	employee of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, who passed
	away on January 15, 2021, at the age of 57; and
	WHEREAS, Lieutenant Preston began her career with TDCJ as a
	training sergeant at the Hamilton Unit in Bryan and was later
	promoted to lieutenant; she shared a rewarding family life with her
	husband, Melvin, their two daughters, Bianca and Monique, and their
	granddaughter; she enjoyed spending her leisure time going on
	cruises, dancing, solving crossword puzzles, and playing cards and
	dominoes; in the workplace, her sincerity and caring mentorship
	earned her the lasting respect of her coworkers, who affectionately
	referred to her as "Mama Bear"; and
	WHEREAS, Treva Preston faithfully and ably performed her
	duties throughout her tenure with the Texas Department of Criminal
	Justice, and she will long be remembered with great admiration by
	all who were privileged to know her; 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
	Treva Preston and extend deepest sympathy to her family, friends,
	and colleagues; 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 Treva
	Preston.

	Murr
