R E S O L U T I O N
	WHEREAS, Since 1990, the Socorro Senior Citizens Nutrition 
Center has served as a much-needed social and recreational outlet 
and nutritional resource for area senior citizens; and
	WHEREAS, This exemplary organization is operated under the 
auspices of the El Paso County Senior Citizens Nutrition Program 
and has, for more than a decade, helped West Texas seniors to remain 
healthy, active, and engaged; in addition to hosting dances and 
picnics, the center sponsors a wide variety of social activities 
ranging from arts and crafts classes to bingo, pool, dominoes, 
swimming, and card games; and
	WHEREAS, The success of the Socorro Senior Citizens Nutrition 
Center would not be possible without the support of its dedicated 
officers, who include president Delia Solis, vice president Jose 
Serna, secretary Lucia Saenz, and treasurer Merle Lawson; the staff 
members at the facility have committed considerable time and 
resources to improving the lives of their fellow Texans, and they 
are indeed deserving of special recognition; now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 78th Texas 
Legislature hereby commend all those associated with the Socorro 
Senior Citizens Nutrition Center for their outstanding service in 
behalf of the area's elderly citizens and extend to them sincere 
best wishes for continued success; and, be it further
	RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be 
prepared for prominent display at the Socorro Senior Citizens 
Nutrition Center as an expression of high regard by the Texas House 
of Representatives.
