 1-1           WHEREAS, David Hagerla is a valued member of State

 1-2     Representative Glen Maxey's staff, and his record of public service

 1-3     is indeed worthy of special recognition; and

 1-4           WHEREAS, A native of Alabama, Mr. Hagerla has brought to his

 1-5     work as a legislative aide an astute grasp of public policy coupled

 1-6     with distinctively Southern sensibilities, and these notable assets

 1-7     have served him well during his tenure at the legislature; and

 1-8           WHEREAS, Mr. Hagerla has lent his expertise to Mr. Maxey as a

 1-9     policy advisor on education, human services, and disability issues

1-11     elderly and disabled; and

1-12           WHEREAS, His contributions to Mr. Maxey's legislative program

1-13     are all the more impressive given Mr. Hagerla's busy schedule

1-14     during this time; while pursuing a master's degree in social work

1-15     at The University of Texas at Austin, he also served as a policy

1-16     intern at the Texas Youth Commission; and

1-17           WHEREAS, David Hagerla's keen intelligence and analytical

1-18     skills have greatly benefited his colleagues at the Texas

1-19     Legislature and citizens across the Lone Star State, and it is

1-20     appropriate to take this opportunity to recognize him for his many

1-21     contributions; now, therefore, be it

1-22           RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 75th Texas

1-23     Legislature hereby honor David Hagerla for his outstanding service

1-24     to the Texas Legislature and extend to him sincere best wishes for

 2-1     continued success and happiness in the years to come; and, be it

 2-2     further

 2-3           RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be

 2-4     prepared for Mr. Hagerla as an expression of high regard by the

 2-5     Texas House of Representatives.

                                                                       Maxey
