SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 714
WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to
recognize Corporal Travis Flowers, Pablo Escobedo, Gregory
Lomason, and Junior Defreitas for their lifesaving actions; and
WHEREAS, These four gentlemen were exercising at a fitness
club in Highland Village when a man collapsed during a workout;
they went to his aid and found he was unconscious and had no
pulse, and they immediately began administering cardiopulmonary
resuscitation; and
WHEREAS, They then applied an automatic external
defibrillator, which analyzed his condition and provided the
necessary electrical shock to reestablish an effective cardiac
rhythm; cardiopulmonary resuscitation was continued until the
man began to breathe on his own and had a strong pulse; and
WHEREAS, Through quick thinking and decisive action,
Corporal Flowers, Mr. Escobedo, Mr. Lomason, and Mr. Defreitas
saved the life of their fellow citizen, and it is truly fitting
that they receive special recognition; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 86th
Legislature, hereby commend Corporal Travis Flowers, Pablo
Escobedo, Gregory Lomason, and Junior Defreitas for their heroic
actions; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for
them as an expression of high regard from the Texas Senate.
