R E S O L U T I O N
	WHEREAS, The history of the Lone Star State has been richly 
influenced by family farming and ranching, and Marilyn and Lanny 
Leinweber and their family have now been officially recognized as 
venerable heirs to a proud tradition with the acceptance of the 
Leinweber Ranch into the Texas Family Land Heritage Program; and
	WHEREAS, The Family Land Heritage Program honors farms and 
ranches that have been in continuous agricultural operation by the 
same family for a century or more, and in reaching this remarkable 
milestone, the Leinweber Ranch, near Mountain Home, has secured its 
stature as a living repository of Texas history; and
	WHEREAS, The rewarding but challenging work of operating a 
sustainable agricultural operation is not only a valuable service 
to the community but also a vital link to the rich and colorful 
history that has made the Lone Star State what it is today; and
	WHEREAS, In taking on this responsibility, Marilyn and Lanny 
Leinweber and their family are adding their own contribution to the 
legacy of their forebears, and it is indeed fitting at this time to 
recognize them; now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 79th Texas 
Legislature hereby honor Marilyn and Lanny Leinweber and their 
family on the occasion of the Leinweber Ranch being accepted into 
the Texas Family Land Heritage Program and extend to them sincere 
best wishes for the future; and, be it further
	RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be 
prepared for the Leinweber family as an expression of high regard by 
the Texas House of Representatives.
