H.R. No. 203
R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Those Texans who work daily to uphold the proud
traditions of family farming are an indispensable asset to the
people of the Lone Star State; and
WHEREAS, D. W. "Mac" McDonald, Jr., and Nettie Lee McDonald
of Cass County are two such individuals, and their outstanding
contributions as family farmers have been justly recognized with
the acceptance of the McDonald farm into the Texas Department of
Agriculture Family Land Heritage Program; and
WHEREAS, Created to honor farms and ranches that have been in
continuous agricultural operation by the same family for a century
or more, the program draws welcome attention to the rich and vibrant
history of Texas agriculture; and
WHEREAS, In continuing to work their family farm, the
McDonalds have carried on their family's significant legacy, and it
is indeed fitting to honor this worthwhile endeavor; now,
therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 79th Texas
Legislature, 2nd Called Session, hereby congratulate Lee and Mac
McDonald on the induction of the McDonald farm into the Texas
Department of Agriculture Family Land Heritage Program and extend
to them sincere best wishes for the future; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for Mr. and Mrs. McDonald as an expression of high regard
by the Texas House of Representatives.
