recognize the Fort Worth Police Department and the Islamic
Speakers Bureau of Dallas-Fort Worth for their exemplary efforts
in organizing the Candles for Connecticut service; and

the victims of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting tragedy

short period of time, made the necessary preparations to bring
together people of varying backgrounds and faiths in a common
cause; and
WHEREAS,
WHEREAS, The coming together of people from all walks of
life to reflect on an event of national importance embodies the
American idea of strength in unity, and it is truly fitting that
such a worthy effort be recognized; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED,
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for
these organizations as an expression of high regard from the
Texas Senate.
