WHEREAS, When they married many years ago, Lou and Jim | ||
"Corky" Dawson placed great faith and trust in one another, and | ||
they have been amply rewarded, as they are celebrating their 50th | ||
wedding anniversary; and | ||
WHEREAS, Lou and Corky Dawson were married on January 21, | ||
1967, after a whirlwind romance and short engagement; they had | ||
met one another on a blind date in the fall of 1966 at West Texas | ||
State University; and | ||
WHEREAS, Mr. and Mrs. Dawson enjoyed productive careers in | ||
education, he as a coach and she as a teacher, before launching a | ||
successful Shaklee business; they went on to establish a thriving | ||
State Farm Insurance agency in Canyon that set numerous sales | ||
records and received multiple awards; they retired and moved to | ||
Granbury in 2003; and | ||
WHEREAS, They have been blessed with a wonderful family; | ||
their sons, Jimmy Don, John David, and Joe De, and their seven | ||
grandchildren have been a source of much pride and joy; and | ||
WHEREAS, Over the years, they have grown stronger in their | ||
love and devotion as together they have experienced the joys and | ||
sorrows of everyday living; the long and happy union of Lou and | ||
Corky Dawson is truly an inspiration to others; now, therefore, | ||
be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 85th | ||
Legislature, hereby extend congratulations to Lou and Jim Dawson | ||
on their 50th wedding anniversary; and, be it further | ||
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for | ||
this distinguished couple as an expression of esteem from the | ||
Texas Senate. | ||
