	SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 408
	WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to
	recognize Alberto Kreimerman of McAllen, who was named a
	Neighborhood All-Star in the summer of 2012 for his outstanding
	community leadership; and
	WHEREAS, The award honors service-minded residents of the
	Rio Grande Valley and is given by the Valley Town Crier and the
	Edinburg Review; and
	WHEREAS, Mr. Kreimerman is the founder of Hermes Music and
	the Hermes Music Foundation; a native of Argentina and a gifted
	musician and composer, he was selected for recognition due to his
	use of music and education to help socially, economically, and
	medically challenged children in the United States and Mexico;
	through his Project of Love, he has given hope and support to
	thousands of children; and
	WHEREAS, Mr. Kreimerman opened the first Hermes Music
	store in McAllen in 1982 and nurtured it into a global business;
	since the store's opening, he has committed part of its earnings
	to multiple outreach programs focused on developing and
	enriching the lives of underserved children; and
	WHEREAS, As an artist himself, Mr. Kreimerman believes in
	the power of music to transform individuals; he established the
	Hermes Music Foundation in 2008, and over the years, he and his
	staff have given away thousands of musical instruments and helped
	pay for medical care and scholarships for children and families
	living in the Rio Grande Valley and in towns across Nevada,
	Florida, California, and Mexico; and
	WHEREAS, This outstanding philanthropist has enlisted such
	talented artists and personalities as Carlos Santana, Willie
	Nelson, Deepak Chopra, and B. B. King in his efforts to empower
	young people and help them achieve their potential; in
	particular, the programs he orchestrates are intended to benefit
	youths who face illness, disabilities, and extreme poverty; and
	WHEREAS, For his humanitarian efforts and generosity of
	spirit and for his untiring efforts to improve the lives of
	others, Mr. Kreimerman is indeed deserving of praise and
	recognition; now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED,




	RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for
	Mr. Kreimerman as an expression of esteem from the Texas Senate.
	Lucio
