SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 25
|
| |
| |
|
|
In Memory |
|
|
of |
|
|
Colton Stults |
| |
|
|
WHEREAS, The tragic passing of Colton O'Neil Stults on |
|
|
May 27, 2023, at the age of 17, has brought an incalculable loss |
|
|
to all those who knew and loved him; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Born on November 30, 2005, Colton Stults was |
|
|
cherished by his parents, Tim and Kendra Stults, and his younger |
|
|
sister, Sarah, as well as by an extended family that included his |
|
|
grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins; he was deeply devoted to |
|
|
his loved ones, and he also drew great strength from his faith; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, This exceptional young man had dreams of one day |
|
|
becoming a physician at Arkansas Children's Hospital; an excellent |
|
|
student, he earned a score of 33 on the ACT, which placed him in the |
|
|
98th percentile of high school students nationwide; he was admired |
|
|
for his humility and quiet confidence, and he made an impression on |
|
|
everyone around him with his wonderful sense of humor, his |
|
|
creativity, and his enthusiasm for life; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Although his passing leaves a tremendous void, |
|
|
those fortunate enough to have known Colton Stults will forever |
|
|
remember the joy and love that he brought into their lives; now, |
|
|
therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 88th |
|
|
Legislature, 1st Called Session, hereby pay tribute to the memory |
|
|
of Colton O'Neil Stults and extend sincere sympathy to the |
|
|
members of his family: to his parents, Tim and Kendra Stults; to |
|
|
his sister, Sarah Kate Stults; to his grandparents, Bill and Gail |
|
|
White and Martella Croft; to his aunts and uncles, Jeff and |
|
|
Shellye White, Robin Stults, and Christina and Mark-Jon Nichols; |
|
|
to his cousins, Emilye, Melodye, and Kaitye White; and to his |
|
|
other relatives and 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 Colton Stults. |
