WHEREAS, The 90th birthday of an esteemed Texan is indeed | ||
cause for celebration, and Jeanne Botto Rodgers marked this | ||
significant milestone in her life on July 10, 2017; and | ||
WHEREAS, Born in 1927, the former Jeanne Botto was joined | ||
in marriage to George Rodgers, and they became the proud parents | ||
of three children, David, Ronnie, and Cindy; and | ||
WHEREAS, Mr. and Mrs. Rodgers were charter members of the | ||
Evangelical Presbyterian Church in Marshall, and if the church | ||
doors were open, Mrs. Rodgers was doubtless there to assist in | ||
some capacity; she taught Sunday school for children in the fourth | ||
through the sixth grade, and she was involved in the prayer | ||
group, Women in Ministry, and in various Bible studies; and | ||
WHEREAS, Widowed in 1992, Mrs. Rodgers now resides in Dallas | ||
with her son David; through the years, she has been blessed with | ||
five grandchildren and a great-grandchild; and | ||
WHEREAS, Jeanne Rodgers has witnessed a panorama of change | ||
over the course of nine decades, and she has met life's | ||
challenges and opportunities with dignity and grace, earning the | ||
deep admiration of all who are privileged to know her; now, | ||
therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 85th | ||
Legislature, 1st Called Session, hereby congratulate Jeanne | ||
Botto Rodgers on her 90th birthday and extend to her sincere best | ||
wishes for continued happiness; and, be it further | ||
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for | ||
Mrs. Rodgers as an expression of high regard from the Texas Senate. | ||
