H.R. No. 19 



R E S O L U T I O N
	WHEREAS, Pavillion Bank has served the citizens of Richardson 
and North Dallas with the utmost distinction for more than 20 years, 
and this dynamic financial institution expanded its vision for the 
future by relocating to a state-of-the-art facility in October 
2005; and
	WHEREAS, Chartered as Pavillion National Bank in 1982, the 
enterprise was formed by a group of investors who shared a common 
vision of building a community-centered, neighborhood bank; and
	WHEREAS, Pavillion National Bank opened its doors to the 
public in January 1983 and, thanks to the efforts of its 
knowledgeable and dedicated staff, board members, and officers, the 
facility soon gained a positive reputation in the community; 
personal service and stability remain the hallmarks of the bank and 
its staff today, and these qualities have engendered a sense of 
loyalty among its customers; and
	WHEREAS, In 1987, the bank was purchased by a Texas-owned, 
two-bank holding company that elected to transition the bank from a 
nationally chartered institution to a state chartered bank in 1990; 
since that time, the bank has been known as Pavillion Bank, a name 
that through its simplicity evokes the hometown feel that its 
founders initially sought; and
	WHEREAS, Many individuals have contributed to the success and 
growth of Pavillion Bank, and figuring prominently among them is 
Stephen K Storey, the bank's chairman of the board, CEO, and 
president for the past 20 years; other current officers include 
executive vice president Chris Derrington, senior vice president 
Robert W. Johnston, vice president/cashier Kristy Barton, vice 
president Debbie Childre, assistant vice president Diana J. Busby, 
and banking officer Marlena Bush; and
	WHEREAS, Pavillion Bank also relies on an astute and able 
board of directors to shepherd the bank and make sound decisions for 
the future; currently serving as board members are Stephen K 
Storey, Rucie Odom, Hershel H. Pierce, Marshal W. Dooley, Tony 
Goolsby, and Rock Pletcher; and
	WHEREAS, The foundation of Pavillion Bank's success was 
established early on through the vision and commitment of those who 
served on the bank's original board of directors, including Charles 
Laningham, Marshal W. Dooley, Michael Scheff, Dr. Russell Euke, 
Billy Swango, Clyde Hensley, Paul Lowe, Chris Moore, Max 
Rosenbloom, Hershel H. Pierce, Ted Scherer, Marty Glass, and Nick 
Renneker; and
	WHEREAS, The bank's original officers, namely president 
Clyde Hensley, vice president Hal Gilley, vice president/cashier 
Tom Bransford, assistant vice president Sue Dorsey, and vice 
president Carolyn Grady, are equally deserving of praise for their 
admirable work in support of Pavillion Bank; and
	WHEREAS, Although the location and building are new, the 
quality of service and experience will remain the same for 
Pavillion Bank's customers and clients; the future is indeed bright 
with promise for this Texas business, and its success reflects the 
hard work, dedication, and skill of all those associated with 
Pavillion Bank; now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 79th Texas 
Legislature, 3rd Called Session, hereby recognize Pavillion Bank 
for its outstanding service to the citizens of Richardson and North 
Dallas and extend best wishes to the many individuals who have 
contributed to the success of this notable institution; and, be it 
further
	RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be 
prepared for Pavillion Bank as an expression of high regard by the 
Texas House of Representatives.

                                                                         Goolsby

	I certify that H.R. No. 19 was adopted by the House on April 
27, 2006, by a non-record vote.
