SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 433
         WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to
  recognize Ruby Cole Session for her laudable achievements as an
  educator and advocate; and
         WHEREAS, Throughout her lifetime, this distinguished Fort
  Worth citizen has served as a role model for school children; she
  is also well regarded for her tireless efforts in the field of
  criminal justice reform; and
         WHEREAS, Mrs. Session is the mother of the late Tim Cole,
  who was the first inmate in Texas to be posthumously exonerated;
  she is a fierce champion of the wrongly accused; her work on
  behalf of her son's case is a poignant testament to a mother's
  refusal to give up hope; and
         WHEREAS, As a teacher for more than 30 years, Mrs. Session
  has also had a positive impact on the lives of innumerable school
  children; as one of the first 25 African-American women to
  graduate from Texas Christian University, she is, herself, a
  shining tribute to academic achievement; and
         WHEREAS, This outstanding Fort Worth resident is revered
  by her friends and family as a devoted mother, an accomplished
  educator, and a resolute advocate of criminal justice reform;
  now, therefore, be it
         RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas,
  83rd Legislature, hereby commend Ruby Cole Session on her many
  achievements and extend to her sincere best wishes in all her
  future endeavors; and, be it further
         RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for
  Mrs. Session as an expression of esteem from the Texas Senate.
