R E S O L U T I O N
	WHEREAS, Louise Proctor has given generously of her time and 
talents to Project Linus, and through her selfless endeavors she is 
bringing comfort to families facing crisis; and
	WHEREAS, Project Linus is a program that provides security 
blankets to children who are seriously ill; started nationally in 
1995, this visionary organization has delivered more than 600,000 
blankets worldwide; and
	WHEREAS, At age 93, Mrs. Proctor is the oldest member of the 
El Paso chapter of Project Linus; she joined the chapter soon after 
it formed about a year ago and has lovingly hand-crocheted and 
donated 18 blankets, each with a special touch and attention to 
detail; and
	WHEREAS, Beloved by all who know her, this remarkable woman 
does not accept boredom; she stays in communication with family and 
friends through the Internet and her fax machine, and when not 
chrocheting she may be making Indian talking sticks; she is truly an 
inspiration to all who know of her and is most deserving of special 
praise; now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 78th Texas 
Legislature hereby commend Louise Proctor for her work in behalf of 
children and extend to her sincere best wishes for continued 
happiness; and, be it further
	RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be 
prepared for Mrs. Proctor as an expression of high regard by the 
Texas House of Representatives.
