SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 742

	WHEREAS, March 26, 2003, marked the 75th anniversary of the 
Farmers Insurance Group of Companies, and this notable milestone 
is indeed deserving of special recognition; and
	WHEREAS, Founded by Thomas E. Leavey and John C. Tyler in 
1928, Farmers Insurance has grown to become the third-largest 
home and auto insurer in the United States, currently providing 
coverage for more than 15 million customers; and
	WHEREAS, Committed to supporting the communities it 
serves, the company has founded a volunteer program, Partners 
in Pride, which brings employees, district managers, and agents 
together to walk for the March of Dimes, build homes for Habitat 
for Humanity, and tutor children; and
	WHEREAS, In 2002, Farmers Insurance contributed 
$3.5 million to nonprofit and safety organizations across the 
country; dedicated employees raised an additional $1.5 million 
on their own initiative, in addition to donating many thousands 
of volunteer hours to charitable and other worthy causes; and
	WHEREAS, Since the opening of the Farmers Insurance facility
in Round Rock in 1986, members of that office have been a valued 
asset to their city and the surrounding area; and
	WHEREAS, For seven and a half decades, Farmers Insurance 
has provided customers with exemplary service and has been 
dedicated to improving communities where its patrons and 
employees live and work; now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 
78th Legislature, hereby congratulate all those associated 
with the Farmers Insurance Group of Companies on their firm's 
75th anniversary and extend to them sincere best wishes for 
continued success in the years ahead; and, be it further
	RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared in 
honor of this occasion.
                                                                       Wentworth
