H.R. No. 1558
R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Words cannot soften the sorrow of a young life cut
short, and we join the loved ones of KayDee Welch of Mansfield in
mourning her passing on March 30, 2005, at the age of 10; and
WHEREAS, Born on February 22, 1995, in Fort Worth, Miss Welch
was a fourth-grade student at Nash Elementary School and a vibrant
young girl who loved field trips, singing, and the classic Dr. Seuss
tale, Green Eggs and Ham; she was a member of the Girl Scouts and
competed in area beauty pageants, and her enthusiasm for life was as
boundless as the deep adoration she received from her friends and
family; and
WHEREAS, Although she struggled with a disability during the
course of her life, this remarkable girl did not let it prevent her
from having fun or embracing new experiences; and
WHEREAS, KayDee Welch was truly an inspiration and will be
dearly missed by the many people whose lives were touched by her
affection, friendship, and sunny personality; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 79th Texas
Legislature hereby pay tribute to the life of KayDee Welch and
extend deepest sympathy to the members of her family: to her mother,
Tammy Welch; to her father, James Welch; to her brothers, Jeffery
and Christopher; to her sister, Jennifer Brown; to her
grandparents, Don and Mary King; and to her other relatives and
friends; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for her family and that when the Texas House of
Representatives adjourns this day, it do so in memory of KayDee
Welch.
