R E S O L U T I O N
	WHEREAS, Rodolfo E. Garza has been a dedicated educator for 
the Edinburg Consolidated Independent School District for the past 
25 years, and it is indeed a pleasure to recognize his many 
accomplishments; and
	WHEREAS, Growing up in a family of migrant workers who 
traversed the states of Texas, Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Arkansas, 
and Missouri, Mr. Garza volunteered in 1964 for the U.S. Air Force, 
serving with distinction until he was honorably discharged four 
years later as a sergeant; and
	WHEREAS, Mr. Garza, assisted by the G.I. Bill, attended The 
University of Texas-Pan American and earned a degree in community 
service; he later attended Texas A&I University, receiving a 
master's degree in education in 1985; and
	WHEREAS, Inspiring his students to excel and setting them on 
the path to a bright future, Mr. Garza has taught career 
investigation and has served as a visiting teacher for the Edinburg 
CISD for a quarter-century; he retired in May 2003, but his deep 
love for teaching drew him back to work as a visiting teacher again; 
and
	WHEREAS, Mr. Garza is a devoted family man who married the 
former Edna de la Garza in 1969; their special union has been 
blessed with two children, Ricardo and Patricia, and they have 
proudly watched their family grow to include two grandchildren, 
Randy and Eric; and
	WHEREAS, Representative Aaron Pena has justly recognized 
this exemplary educator by authoring this resolution in his behalf 
during the 78th legislative session; now, therefore, be it

for his 25 years of service in education and extend to him best 
wishes for continued success and happiness; and, be it further
	RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be 
prepared for Mr. Garza as an expression of high regard by the Texas 
House of Representatives.
