WHEREAS, Through his outstanding work as a public member of
the Sunset Advisory Commission, Howard Wolf has rendered exemplary
service to the people of the Lone Star State; and
WHEREAS, Appointed to the commission by Lieutenant Governor
David Dewhurst in 2003, Mr. Wolf has given unstintingly of his time
and talents in helping that body to carry out its critical charge;
his deep engagement in the work of the commission, his
comprehensive grasp of mountainous information, and his acute
analytical skills have all been invaluable to the agency in its
ongoing efforts to assess the effectiveness of state policies and
government organizations; and
WHEREAS, When choosing a vantage point from which to consider
an issue, this distinguished Texan is prone to seek a view from the
"ionosphere," in order to take in the entirety of the matter;
endowed with abundant energy, keen intelligence, and an engaging
manner, he has won his colleagues' high regard for the informed
judgment and lively discourse he has brought to their endeavors; at
the same time, his dapper presence has lifted the sartorial level in
every room he has entered by at least several degrees; and
WHEREAS, A native Texan, Mr. Wolf joined the law firm of
Fulbright & Jaworski in 1959 and retired as a partner in 2003; his
willingness to surrender well-deserved leisure with his wife and
children in order to assume this most recent post is an eloquent
testament to his great civic spirit, and his exceptional devotion
to this state and its people is indeed deserving of warmest
commendation; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 79th Texas
Legislature hereby honor Howard Wolf for his dedicated service as a
member of the Sunset Advisory Commission and extend to him sincere
appreciation for the commitment and ability with which he has met
the responsibilities of this office; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for Mr. Wolf as an expression of high regard by the Texas
House of Representatives.
