R E S O L U T I O N
	WHEREAS, The tragic passing of Michelle Lynn Rothwell of 
Houston on May 3, 2003, at the age of 31, has brought a great loss to 
the many friends and relatives of this lovely young woman; and
	WHEREAS, A native Texan, she was born in Beaumont on October 
20, 1971, and was blessed with a friendly, outgoing manner that 
earned her a host of friends throughout her lifetime; devoted to her 
husband, Scott, the couple shared a fulfilling and lasting union; 
and
	WHEREAS, Mrs. Rothwell's winning smile served her well as 
manager of Chandail Needleworks; with a passion for needlepoint 
design, this talented young woman established her own business, 
Doodles Boxes, which specialized in the design and construction of 
needlepoint boxes, and she took great pleasure in crafting gifts 
for her loved ones;  and
	WHEREAS, Those who were close to Mrs. Rothwell could not help 
but be affected by her outgoing and energetic spirit; she treasured 
the antique shopping sprees she took with her grandmother 
throughout the small towns of East Texas and spent many happy hours 
dove hunting, gardening, and volunteering with the Pink Ribbons 
Project; and
	WHEREAS, Michelle Rothwell was a cherished member of her 
community whose presence brightened the lives of her family and 
friends; though she will be deeply mourned, her memory will 
continue to live on in the hearts of all who were privileged to know 
her during her years on this earth; now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 78th Texas 
Legislature hereby honor the life of Michelle Lynn Rothwell and 
extend sincere sympathy to her family: to her husband, Scott B. 
Rothwell; to her father, Ted L. Roblow; to her sister, Denise 
Batschauer; to her brother, Brian K. Roblow; to her grandmother, 
Lola W. Bankston; and to her 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 Michelle 
Lynn Rothwell.

                                                                            Wong
