SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 126

	WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas joins the 
citizens of Dallas in congratulating Brian A. Williams of Boy 
Scout Troop 788, who recently achieved the rank of Eagle Scout; 
and

	WHEREAS, This outstanding young man has brought honor to 
himself, his family, his troop, his community, and his state in 
earning the coveted Eagle Badge; and

	WHEREAS, Brian completed a service project that required 
him to exercise his leadership abilities and at the same time 
benefit his community; he and 40 other individuals organized a 
food drive to benefit the less fortunate in Dallas; they went 
door-to-door in his neighborhood, collecting 500 nonperishable 
food items; afterwards, they organized, boxed, and delivered the 
donated food to churches in Oak Cliff for use in emergencies; and

	WHEREAS, Few are privileged to be named among the ranks of 
the elite corps of Eagle Scouts; only two out of every 100 Boy 
Scouts earn this distinguished honor; and

	WHEREAS, Following the principles of the Scout oath and 
promise, Brian advanced from Tenderfoot, Second, First, Star, 
and Life classes to Eagle Scout; he is truly an exemplary citizen 
of the State of Texas; now, therefore, be it

	RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas,
78th Legislature, 3rd Called Session, hereby congratulate
Brian A. Williams on attaining the rank of Eagle Scout and 
commend him on this great achievement; and, be it further

	RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for 
Eagle Scout Williams as an expression of esteem from the
Texas Senate.
                                                                            West
