By: Gutierrez | S.R. No. 584 |
|
||
WHEREAS, Words cannot adequately express the heartache felt | ||
by the family and friends of Alexandria Aniyah Rubio of Uvalde, who | ||
passed away on May 24, 2022, at the age of 10; and | ||
WHEREAS, Alexandria Rubio, who was affectionately known as | ||
"Lexi," was born in Hondo on October 20, 2011, to Kimberly | ||
Mata-Rubio and Felix Rubio; she shared a loving bond with her two | ||
sisters, Jahleela and Kalisa, and her three brothers, Julian, | ||
David, and Isaiah, and she drew on the support of a large extended | ||
family that included her grandparents, great-grandparents, aunts, | ||
uncles, and cousins; and | ||
WHEREAS, An athletic and energetic fourth-grader, Alexandria | ||
inherited her father's passion for playing softball and basketball; | ||
they devoted many hours to their one-on-one practice sessions, and | ||
Lexi relished the experience of winning a championship with her | ||
youth basketball team last season; she also drew inspiration from | ||
her mother, who was pursuing a degree from St. Mary's University in | ||
San Antonio, and she hoped to one day enroll at the university | ||
herself to study mathematics then attend law school; and | ||
WHEREAS, Alexandria cherished the time she spent with her | ||
family and friends, and some of her favorite activities included | ||
baking cookies with her great-grandmother, exchanging jokes with | ||
her loved ones, and curling up on the couch with a book; though she | ||
possessed a sarcastic wit, she was also caring and generous, and she | ||
had a beautiful smile that naturally progressed into hearty | ||
laughter whenever she was around her siblings; and | ||
WHEREAS, Alexandria Rubio was a source of immense joy to | ||
everyone in her life, and although her loss is tremendously | ||
difficult to bear, her memory will forever be treasured by all who | ||
were blessed to know her; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the 88th Texas Legislature | ||
hereby pay tribute to the life of Alexandria Aniyah Rubio and extend | ||
sincere condolences to the members of her family: to her parents, | ||
Kimberly Mata-Rubio and Felix Rubio; to her siblings, Julian Rubio, | ||
Jahleela Rubio, David Falcon III, Kalisa Barboza, and Isaiah | ||
Rodriguez; to her aunt, Analyse Mata, and her uncle, Brandon | ||
Mendoza Sr.; to her cousins, Brandon Mendoza Jr., Derek Mendoza, | ||
and Mary-Claire Mendoza; to her grandparents, Cindy Castillo and | ||
her husband, Victor, Ruben F. Mata and his wife, Larisa, and Connie | ||
and Luis "Chacho" Rubio; to her great-grandparents, Mary and Ruben | ||
Mata, Margie and Julian Moreno, Oralia Orona and Trini Gutierrez, | ||
and Jesse and Maxine Martinez; to her numerous great-aunts, | ||
great-uncles, and cousins; to her best friend, Sarah; and to the | ||
countless others in Uvalde and beyond who mourn her passing; and, be | ||
it further | ||
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be | ||
prepared for her family and that when the Texas Senate adjourns this | ||
day, it do so in memory of Alexandria Rubio. |
