H.R. No. 1159
R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, The untimely passing of Lynn Stark on May 2, 2003, at
the age of 47, has brought a profound sense of loss to the family and
friends of this beloved Texan; and
WHEREAS, An Ohio native, Mrs. Stark was born in Cleveland on
March 9, 1956, and she graduated from Rocky River High School in
1974; shortly thereafter, she joined the United States Air Force
and went on to become one of the nation's first female military air
traffic controllers; and
WHEREAS, Blessed with an effervescent personality and a keen
sense of humor, Mrs. Stark moved to The Woodlands in 1978, and began
a career as a real estate agent; her notable success in this field
was credited, in large part, to her gregarious nature, which
allowed her to make the experience of building, buying, or selling a
home a truly enjoyable and memorable event for all involved; and
WHEREAS, This charming woman positively affected the lives of
countless Texans during her time on this earth, and while she will
be greatly missed, her memory will live on in the hearts and minds
of the many people whose lives she touched; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 78th Texas
Legislature hereby pay tribute to the life of Lynn Stark and extend
sincere sympathy to the members of her family: to her devoted
husband of nine years, Dr. Thomas Stark; to her children, Michael
McDermott, Andrew McDermott, Mark McDermott, Chelsea Stark, and
Alex Stark; to her parents, Robert and Shirley Alexander; to her
siblings, Robert P. "Bobby" Alexander, David M. Alexander, Lee Ann
Alexander, and Nancy Ann Alexander Smith; and to her other
relatives and many friends; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for her family and that when the Texas House of
Representatives adjourns this day, it do so in memory of Lynn Stark.
