    1-1        WHEREAS, The legislative community recently suffered a great
    1-2  loss with the passing of Lenore Johnson, who was employed as a
    1-3  photographer with the Texas House of Representatives; and
    1-4        WHEREAS, Known by many denizens of the Capitol Complex for
    1-5  the glamorous grey streak in her hair as well as her talent,
    1-6  Ms. Johnson was a native of San Antonio who left the Lone Star
    1-7  State to attend the prestigious Brooks Institute of Photographic
    1-8  Art and Science in California before returning home to Texas, the
    1-9  state she was proud to call home; and
   1-10        WHEREAS, Happy to find employment that would combine her love
   1-11  of Texas with her love of photography, Ms. Johnson joined the staff
   1-12  of the house photography department in 1987 and, throughout the
   1-13  ensuing years, developed a reputation for her artistry and her
   1-14  attention to detail, which greatly enhanced the beauty of the
   1-15  monthly wall calendar produced by the house of representatives and
   1-16  countless other projects during her tenure; and
   1-17        WHEREAS, A consummate professional, she took myriad
   1-18  photographs of house members over the course of her employment and
   1-19  always strived to make them look their best, winning the lasting
   1-20  friendship and admiration of many along the way; and
   1-21        WHEREAS, Lenore Johnson was cherished by her family and
   1-22  friends and all who had grown to know her through the years; though
   1-23  her absence is keenly felt, the memory of this remarkable woman
   1-24  will long endure through the beauty of the work and the memories
    2-1  she leaves behind; now, therefore, be it
    2-2        RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 74th Texas
    2-3  Legislature hereby pay tribute to the life of Lenore Johnson and
    2-4  extend deepest sympathy to her beloved daughter, Nory Johnson, to
    2-5  her adoring partner, Rusty Busby, and to her many other friends and
    2-6  family members; and, be it further
    2-7        RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
    2-8  prepared for the members of her family and that when the Texas
    2-9  House of Representatives adjourns this day, it do so in memory of
   2-10  Lenore Johnson.
