|
|
||
| WHEREAS, The life of Sergio Ivan Rodriguez was tragically cut | ||
| short on December 9, 2024, at the tender age of 15 in his hometown of | ||
| Houston, Texas; though his time was brief, Sergio left an indelible | ||
| mark on his family, friends, and community; and it is indeed fitting | ||
| to name a pedestrian bridge in his memory; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Born on March 2, 2009, Sergio was known for his | ||
| infectious sense of humor and his ability to bring joy to those | ||
| around him; a dedicated 10th-grade student at Charles H. Milby High | ||
| School, he was passionate about football and was admired for his | ||
| talent on the field, where he poured his heart into the game he | ||
| loved; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Sergio's enthusiasm extended beyond sports; he | ||
| cherished time spent with his family and friends, bonding over | ||
| shared interests such as movies, video games, and wings, his | ||
| favorite food; he had a special affection for his cats, Chana and | ||
| Rambo, and his love for animals further exemplified his kind and | ||
| compassionate spirit; and | ||
| WHEREAS, To honor the memory of Sergio Ivan Rodriguez and | ||
| recognize the joy and inspiration he brought to those around him, it | ||
| is fitting to commemorate his life in a way that reflects his | ||
| enduring spirit and love for his community; now, therefore, be it | ||
| RESOLVED, That the 89th Legislature of the State of Texas | ||
| hereby urge the Houston City Council to construct the Sergio Ivan | ||
| Rodriguez Memorial Pedestrian Bridge over the railroad tracks near | ||
| Charles H. Milby High School in honor of Sergio Ivan Rodriguez, | ||
| ensuring that his legacy of love, laughter, and dedication to his | ||
| family and his community will be remembered for generations to | ||
| come; and, be it further | ||
| RESOLVED, That the secretary of state forward an official | ||
| copy of this resolution to the Houston City Council. | ||
