WHEREAS, David Lopez is the owner of the Mug and Brush Barber Shop at the Echo Hotel and Conference Center in Edinburg, and he has remained at the cutting edge of his profession throughout his 45-year career, during which time his tonsorial expertise and razor-sharp wit have garnered him acclaim from both the city of Edinburg and Senator Juan "Chuy" Hinojosa; and WHEREAS, With his skill as a barber complemented by a strong sense of diplomacy and a seemingly endless supply of jokes, Mr. Lopez is a favorite among prominent political leaders of South Texas, among them this chamber's own Representative Aaron Peña, who has been his customer for 35 years; while his prices "are subject to change according to customer's attitude," he encourages political debate and his shop is the place to be to hear the latest stories and news; and WHEREAS, With the support of his beloved wife, Emma, Mr. Lopez has provided a happy home life for the couple's six children, and in recent years the family has grown to include 14 grandchildren and two great-grandsons, all of whom can take great pride in the accomplishments of this noteworthy businessman; now, therefore, be it RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 78th Texas Legislature hereby recognize David Lopez, owner of the Mug and Brush Barber Shop in Edinburg, and extend to him best wishes for many more years of happiness and success; and, be it further RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be prepared for Mr. Lopez as an expression of high regard by the Texas House of Representatives.
