WHEREAS, The tragic passing of Andrew Lopez Jr. of Red Oak on |
|
April 17, 2021, at the age of 19, is a heartbreaking loss to his many |
|
loved ones and friends; and |
|
WHEREAS, Born in Edinburg on September 17, 2001, to Lydia |
|
Peralta and Andrew Lopez, Andrew Lopez Jr. grew up with the |
|
companionship of three younger brothers, Anthony, C. J., and |
|
Adrian; he was a member of the Class of 2021 at Red Oak High School, |
|
and after graduating, he had plans to study to be an auto |
|
technician; in his free time, he enjoyed working on cars, a passion |
|
he shared with his brothers and his dad, Christopher Treviño; |
|
through hard work, he was able to save enough money to purchase a |
|
vehicle of his own, a 1999 Acura Integra, which was his pride and |
|
joy; and |
|
WHEREAS, Mr. Lopez was a caring and attentive young man who |
|
always put the needs of others ahead of his own; he embraced his |
|
role as the eldest sibling and often served as a handyman around the |
|
home; he also took pleasure in listening to music and playing video |
|
games with his brothers and friends, and he always made time for his |
|
family, whether by joining them on trips to the lake or by showing |
|
off his cooking skills for them at Sunday breakfasts and barbecues; |
|
and |
|
WHEREAS, Although his passing leaves a tremendous void, those |
|
fortunate enough to have known Andrew Lopez Jr. will forever |
|
remember his generous heart, his enthusiasm for life, and his |
|
unwavering devotion to those he loved; now, therefore, be it |
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 87th Texas |
|
Legislature hereby pay tribute to the memory of Andrew Lopez Jr. |
|
and extend profound condolences to all who mourn his passing; 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 Andrew |
|
Lopez Jr. |
