WHEREAS, A life made rich through meaningful service drew to
a close with the passing of Mitchel A. McCormick of Harlingen on
July 15, 2022, at the age of 69; and
WHEREAS, The son of William "Mac" and Mary McCormick, Mitch

number of places around the world during his childhood, and he
graduated from Stuttgart American High School in Germany in 1971;
and
WHEREAS, Answering his nation's call to duty, Mr. McCormick
served in the U.S. Army for nine years, including more than five
years as a member of the Honor Guard in Washington, D.C.; he climbed
the ranks to become senior soloist on the Honor Guard's traveling
drill team, and he went on to serve in a mechanized infantry unit in
Germany for over three years; and
WHEREAS, After receiving an honorable discharge,
Mr. McCormick held a variety of jobs before starting his career
with Domino's Pizza as a franchise area leader, and through the
years, he became the owner of six stores; during more than three
decades as a franchisee with the company, he ably led some of the
highest-grossing stores in the country; and
WHEREAS, Above all else, Mr. McCormick was devoted to his
family; he shared a rewarding marriage with his wife, Penni, and he
took immense pride in his sons, Travis, Lance, Davis, and Colin; in
his leisure hours, Mr. McCormick enjoyed reading, visiting the
beach, spending time with his family, and traveling with his
Stuttgart friends; and
WHEREAS, While the passing of Mitch McCormick brings great
sorrow to his loved ones, he leaves behind a legacy that will long
be treasured by all those who held him dear; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the 88th Texas Legislature

friends; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for his family and that when the Texas Senate adjourns this
day, it do so in memory of Mitch McCormick.
