R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Linda Barbouche Brooks, who served as a
sergeant-at-arms during this legislative session, was born in Le
Kef, Tunisia, in 1982; and
WHEREAS, Although she arrived in the United States only a few

Mrs. Brooks adapted quickly to her new home and job, and she has
ably performed her duties as an assistant sergeant-at-arms for the
house members and staff; and
WHEREAS, Married last August in Tunis, this notable young
woman plans to pursue her higher education and life in Texas, and
she is indeed a welcome addition to the Lone Star State; now,
therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 78th Texas
Legislature hereby commend Linda Barbouche Brooks on her
outstanding legislative service; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That the members of this chamber extend greetings
to the Barbouche family in Tunisia, including Linda's father,
Ferid, her mother, Monia, her sister, Naziha, and her brother,
Mohammed; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That the Texas House of Representatives encourage
her, on her many future trips back to North Africa, to carry to the
Arab world a message of democracy in action in
America--Texas-style; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for Mrs. Brooks as an expression of high regard by the
Texas House of Representatives.
