R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Texans place great value in the importance of community service, and it is a pleasure to recognize nine very special individuals who adhere to this philosophy and have had a profound impact on the community they are proud to call home; and WHEREAS, The Epsilon Chapter of Eta Phi Beta Sorority hosted its fourth Unsung Heroes Luncheon on April 24, 2004, to honor those Dallas citizens who have brightened the lives of others through their many good works but have not yet received the recognition they deserve; and WHEREAS, The following individuals are this year's Unsung Heroes: Don Wayne Deramus, Devonne Graghn Foutz, Selmore Haines III, Mildred Johnson, Mary Luckey, Vernell McCall, Mildred Pope, Floyd Earl White, and Mary N. Williams; and WHEREAS, These honored citizens continue to provide leadership and serve as role models and genuine trailblazers in their respective fields, encouraging young people that they too may find success in their own lives and turn their dreams for the future into reality; and WHEREAS, While these remarkable individuals have all made their own unique contributions to their community, they share a kind and compassionate nature, and their generosity in behalf of others will not soon be forgotten; now, therefore, be it RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 78th Texas Legislature, 4th Called Session, hereby honor the Eta Phi Beta Unsung Heroes and commend them for their myriad efforts in behalf of their fellow citizens; and, be it further RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be prepared for each honoree as an expression of high regard by the Texas House of Representatives.
