R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, The death of a child is a sobering reminder of the brevity and fragility of life, and it is with deep sorrow that we mourn the passing of Anthony Paschal Dwight of Houston on April 14, 2005, at the age of 10; and WHEREAS, Among Anthony's most distinctive attributes was his great love of learning, and the delight he took in sharpening his able mind expressed itself both in his straight-A average at Oak Forest Elementary School and in the depth and breadth of his reading; and WHEREAS, A loving son and brother, he enjoyed reading library books aloud to his two-year-old brother, Rico, a kindness that was typical of this remarkable young man; and WHEREAS, Family and friends of Anthony Dwight may count themselves fortunate to have known him, and in recalling his unique and irreplaceable spirit, will keep his memory alive in continuing tribute; now, therefore, be it RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 79th Texas Legislature hereby honor the memory of Anthony Paschal Dwight of Houston and extend sincere sympathy to his parents, Frederick and Jennifer Dwight; to his brother, Rico; and to his other relatives and friends; and, be it further RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be prepared for the members of his family and that when the Texas House of Representatives adjourns this day, it do so in memory of Anthony Paschal Dwight.
