R E S O L U T I O N
	WHEREAS, The passing of Caroline Newhouse Lehrer of Garwood 
on September 21, 2003, at the age of 80, has brought an immense loss 
to the many friends and relatives of this much-loved Texan; and
	WHEREAS, Born on October 6, 1922, in Washington, Indiana, she 
was raised in Weston, West Virginia, where she graduated from high 
school in 1940; three years later, she graduated from Stephens 
College in Columbia, Missouri, and then embarked on a career as an 
airline stewardess with C&S Airlines in Memphis, Tennessee, and 
later with Braniff Airlines in Dallas; and
	WHEREAS, In 1952, this accomplished woman married William N. 
Lehrer, and in the years that followed she built a happy home life 
for the couple's four children, Gretchen, Nancy, Mary, and William 
Paul; Mrs. Lehrer, who maintained her professional ties as a member 
of the Clipped Wings Sorority, was a proud member of the Daughters 
of the American Revolution who generously supported such 
organizations as the Eagle Lake hospital, the Magnolia Homes Tour 
of Columbus, Christ Episcopal Church of Eagle Lake, and the Order of 
the Daughters of the King; and
	WHEREAS, Those who had the privilege of knowing Mrs. Lehrer 
will not quickly forget the kindness, grace, and compassion she 
brought to every facet of her life, and although her presence is 
gone from us now, her memory will endure in the hearts of all those 
whose lives she touched during her years on this earth; now, 
therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 78th Texas 
Legislature, 3rd Called Session, hereby pay tribute to the life of 
Caroline Newhouse Lehrer and extend deepest sympathy to the members 
of her family:  to her son and daughter-in-law, William Paul and 
Monica Lehrer; to her daughters and sons-in-law, Mary L. Armour, 
Nancy and Curtis Boyd, and Gretchen and Jack McMenimen; to her five 
grandchildren; and to her many other relatives and friends; and, be 
it further
	RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be 
prepared for the members of her family and that when the Texas House 
of Representatives adjourns this day, it do so in memory of Caroline 
Newhouse Lehrer.
