| Hilmar G. Moore | ||
| WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas joins the | ||
| citizens of Richmond in mourning the loss of Hilmar G. Moore, who | ||
| died December 4, 2012, at the age of 92; and | ||
| WHEREAS, A legendary figure in the City of Richmond, Hilmar | ||
| Moore was an exemplary citizen and public servant who was widely | ||
| admired throughout the community for his integrity, his | ||
| forthrightness, and his willingness to undertake any task; he was | ||
| the mayor of the City of Richmond for 63 years; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Mr. Moore was born into a pioneering Texas family, | ||
| and his great-great-grandfather was a signer of the Texas | ||
| Declaration of Independence; and | ||
| WHEREAS, | ||
| WHEREAS, He was a man of humility who was noted for his | ||
| determination and down-to-earth personality; throughout his | ||
| 63-year tenure as mayor, he declined to have a City Hall office or | ||
| desk, and he insisted that any roadwork done on city streets be | ||
| applied last to the street on which he lived; and | ||
| WHEREAS, | ||
| WHEREAS, A man of courage, strength, and tenacity, Hilmar | ||
| Moore gave unselfishly to others and was highly respected by all | ||
| who knew him; he was a devoted husband and father, and he leaves | ||
| behind memories that will be treasured forever by his family and | ||
| many friends; now, therefore, be it | ||
| RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 83rd | ||
| Legislature, hereby extend sincere condolences to the bereaved | ||
| family of Hilmar G. Moore; and, be it further | ||
| RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for | ||
| his family as an expression of deepest sympathy from the Texas | ||
| Senate, and that when the Senate adjourns this day, it do so in | ||
| memory of Hilmar G. Moore. | ||
| Hegar | ||
