WHEREAS, The Garza Tienda de Segunda in Pharr is celebrating
its 35th anniversary in 2003, marking a truly notable milestone in
the history of this unique business; and
WHEREAS, Proof that one person's throwaway is another's
treasure, the store offers an overwhelming variety of used goods to
bargain-hunting shoppers, including all manner of clothing items,
lampshades, candlesticks, dishes, and 8-track tapes; and
WHEREAS, By far the most impressive display items at the
store are its thousands of automobile hubcaps, which can be found on
shelves, hanging from the rafters, and adorning the fencing outside
the building; and
WHEREAS, This exceptional enterprise's longevity is a
tribute to the hard work of its owners, Nemencia and Genaro Garza,
as well as the loyalty of its many satisfied patrons, and it is
appropriate that the Garza Tienda de Segunda be honored at this
time; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 78th Texas
Legislature hereby congratulate Mr. and Mrs. Garza on the 35th
anniversary of the Garza Tienda de Segunda and extend to them
sincere best wishes for future success; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for prominent display at the Garza Tienda de Segunda as an
expression of high regard by the Texas House of Representatives.
