	age of 54; and
	WHEREAS, The son of Elzie and Lenora Lewis, Greg Lewis was
	born on September 20, 1966, in Jacksboro, and he grew up in a loving
	Christian home with three siblings, Gevern, Lynette, and Laurie;
	while in elementary school, he began mowing lawns in the
	afternoons, developing a strong work ethic; he graduated from
	Jacksboro High School in 1985 and went on to earn a bachelor's
	degree from Tarleton State University four years later; and
	WHEREAS, Mr. Lewis enjoyed a fulfilling career as the owner
	of GAL Horticulture Services, where he pursued his passion for
	transforming properties through landscape design; an avid

	with cattle, and taking in the beauty of sunrises and sunsets; and

	with the love of his life, the former Jenilynn Barefield, with whom
	he shared nearly three decades of marriage; he was the devoted

	his family; a valued congregant of the First Baptist Church of
	Jacksboro, he served as a deacon, a Sunday school teacher, and a
	youth sponsor, and he was involved with numerous church ministries
	and community initiatives; and
	WHEREAS, Although Greg Lewis is greatly missed, memories of
	his strength of character, his abiding faith, and his dedication to
	his loved ones remain to comfort and inspire those he leaves behind;
	now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 87th Texas

	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 Greg Lewis.
