all those who are fortunate to know her; and
	WHEREAS, Deeply committed to her family, Mrs. Richards 
possesses exemplary strength and courage, meeting life's many ups

one example of her innumerable acts of selflessness; and

with her loving kindness, and it is a pleasure to join her family in 
honoring her for her unwavering dedication to others; now, 
therefore, be it

Legislature, 3rd Called Session, hereby commend Sylvia Margarita 
Origel-Richards for her many good works and extend to her sincere 
best wishes for the future; and, be it further
