	SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 45


	In Memory
	of
	Jim Bob Hill

	WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas joins the
	citizens of Del Rio in mourning the loss of Jim Bob Hill, who died
	on January 4, 2013, at the age of 58; and
	WHEREAS, Born June 14, 1954, to Jack and Rosamond Hill, he
	was a lifelong resident of Del Rio, a city that he loved and to
	which he devoted much civic energy; and
	WHEREAS, Jim Bob Hill was a proud alumnus of Del Rio High
	School; he married his high school sweetheart, Mary, upon
	graduation in 1972, and the couple had three sons, whom Mr. Hill
	delighted in teaching the nuances of baseball and the finer
	points of fishing and hunting; and
	WHEREAS, He also was an unfailing mentor to young athletes
	in the community, and he shared his appreciation for
	sportsmanship with area youth through his roles as a Little
	League baseball coach and a football referee; and
	WHEREAS, An adventurous man who liked to travel, Mr. Hill
	frequently paired his journeys with his passion for sports,
	particularly baseball; his friends recall his tales, recounted
	with relish, of playing hardball in Mexico; and
	WHEREAS, This civic leader was equally admired for his eye
	for design and construction; he helped expand his father's
	business, Jack Hill Construction Company, and he left a lasting
	mark on the area by building exemplary commercial structures such
	as banks and fire stations; and
	WHEREAS, Mr. Hill will be widely remembered for his
	generosity and kindness of spirit; he frequently took the time to
	help others, often delivering that aid with a smile and a ready
	laugh; he lived his life with honor and faith and was a devoted
	husband, father, and grandfather; now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 83rd
	Legislature, hereby extend sincere condolences to the bereaved
	family of Jim Bob Hill; and, be it further
	RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for
	his family as an expression of esteem from the Texas Senate.

	Uresti
