WHEREAS, The thousands of deaths caused by COVID-19 in Texas |
|
|
have created a tremendous void in families, communities, and |
|
|
workplaces throughout the state; among those who lost their lives |
|
|
in the pandemic was Timothy Beggs, a dedicated and well-respected |
|
|
employee of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, who passed |
|
|
away on December 9, 2020, at the age of 61; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Mr. Beggs was a correctional officer initially |
|
|
assigned to the Scott Unit in Angleton before moving on to the |
|
|
Carole Young Medical Facility in Dickinson and later to Special |
|
|
Services at Hospital Galveston; in all of his endeavors, he enjoyed |
|
|
the love and support of his wife of 14 years, Angela, and he took |
|
|
great pride in their family, which included four children and two |
|
|
grandchildren; over the course of more than 12 years at the TDCJ, |
|
|
Mr. Beggs endeared himself to his coworkers with his warm and |
|
|
friendly nature, delightful sense of humor, and willingness to lend |
|
|
a helping hand; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Timothy Beggs faithfully and ably performed his |
|
|
duties throughout his tenure with the Texas Department of Criminal |
|
|
Justice, and he will long be remembered with great admiration by all |
|
|
who were privileged to know him; now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 87th Texas |
|
|
Legislature, 2nd Called Session, hereby pay tribute to the life of |
|
|
Timothy Beggs and extend deepest sympathy to his family, friends, |
|
|
and colleagues; and, be it further |
|
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
|
prepared for his family and that when the Texas House of |
|
|
Representatives adjourns this day, it do so in memory of Timothy |
|
|
Beggs. |
