	In Memory
	of
	Mundy Ingalls Peale, Jr.

	WHEREAS, Memories of a life filled with joyful times and
	meaningful accomplishments remain to comfort the family and
	friends of Mundy Ingalls Peale, Jr., of Lake Kiowa, who passed
	away on July 8, 2009, at the age of 74; and

	WHEREAS, Born in Evansville, Illinois, on August 23, 1934,
	Mundy Peale was a 1956 graduate of Princeton University, where he
	majored in economics and received the prestigious Triade Trophy,
	the highest honor in Ivy League wrestling; he went on to earn a
	degree from the Harvard Business School in 1961 and also served
	in the United States Air Force as a pilot and radar intercept
	officer; and

	WHEREAS, Mr. Peale married the former Pat Crawford in 1957,
	and the couple enjoyed a rewarding union that continued for 51
	years; they were blessed with three children, Mundy, Lalon, and
	Danielle, and with the passing years their family grew to include
	seven grandchildren; and

	WHEREAS, This respected business executive began his
	career with the Ford Motor Company in 1961 as a cost analyst, and
	during his tenure with the company he held several supervisory
	positions and worked in locations around the globe; in 1979, he
	became the vice president and controller for the Rockwell
	International Electronics Operations and Avionics and Missiles
	Group, and he later was vice president of corporate finance for
	the company's central region; after serving as the chief
	financial officer for Marlow Industries from 1993 to 1996, he
	helped create the company United Space Alliance, which partnered
	with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration in
	carrying out manned space operations; he held the title of chief
	financial officer at the time of his retirement in 1998; and

	WHEREAS, Though he made his home in a variety of locations
	as a result of his career, Mr. Peale was always involved in
	community affairs; a member of Rotary International and a
	supporter of the Boy Scouts of America, he also played an active
	role in the churches he attended, helping with financial matters,
	teaching Sunday school, and assisting building committees; in
	his leisure time, he loved to golf, play tennis, and travel, and
	he took great satisfaction in devoting himself to his family; and

	WHEREAS, Honorable, humble, and widely admired, Mundy
	Peale lived a caring and purposeful life, and he will forever be
	remembered with great affection by those who were privileged to
	share in his love and friendship; now, therefore, be it

	RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 82nd
	Legislature, hereby pay tribute to the memory of Mundy Ingalls
