H.R. No. 727 |
|
||
WHEREAS, The University of Texas at Austin is an institution | ||
of exceptional standing in the Lone Star State, engendering a | ||
strong sense of pride among its alumni that stays with them long | ||
after they graduate; and | ||
WHEREAS, While UT alumni have distinguished themselves in | ||
myriad fields of endeavor, they forever remain Longhorns who carry | ||
with them special memories of their time at UT and draw upon the | ||
knowledge, skills, and experiences they acquired in their years of | ||
study; and | ||
WHEREAS, In the time that has passed since the 85th Texas | ||
Legislative Session, we have bidden farewell to a number of UT | ||
alumni, and it is fitting that we pause to remember their lives and | ||
achievements; and | ||
WHEREAS, Gone but never to be forgotten, these men and women | ||
were cherished family members, and many became role models in their | ||
professions and leaders in their communities; often loyally, | ||
vocally, and even boisterously supportive of their alma mater | ||
throughout their lives, some former Longhorns took on active roles | ||
in alumni organizations and committees, where they shared their | ||
time and talents to help guide their beloved university toward a | ||
still brighter future; and | ||
WHEREAS, Regardless of where they ventured to make their mark | ||
on the world, these UT graduates were connected by the common thread | ||
of having attended one of the best universities in the nation, and | ||
they have left behind legacies to be treasured by their loved ones | ||
and fellow alumni; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 86th Texas | ||
Legislature hereby pay tribute to the lives of the alumni of The | ||
University of Texas who have passed away since the last legislative | ||
session and extend deepest sympathy to all who mourn their passing. | ||
Raymond | ||
