R E S O L U T I O N
	WHEREAS, The family and many friends of Elia Gonzalez of 
Mission were shocked and saddened by her sudden passing on January 
3, 2005, and we join them in mourning the loss of a remarkable 
woman; and
	WHEREAS, Born July 25, 1962, in McAllen, Elee Mae Gonzalez 
was well loved for her warm nature and generosity of spirit, and she 
took great satisfaction in helping others whenever possible; and
	WHEREAS, She herself derived great sustenance from her own 
close-knit and loving family, and her devoted presence at the 
center of her home daily enriched the lives of her husband, Armando 
Gonzalez, and their daughters, Jina Abigail and Janiva Elisa; and
	WHEREAS, Her gifts of empathy and gentle guidance extended 
far beyond her own household, and countless students at elementary, 
junior high, and high schools in the area benefited from her work as 
an instructional aide and volunteer; and
	WHEREAS, Although her absence will be deeply felt for many 
years to come, we may take comfort from the fact that her matchless 
spirit will continue to shine on brightly in the hearts of all those 
fortunate enough to have known her; now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 79th Texas 
Legislature hereby pay tribute to the memory of Elia Gonzalez and 
extend sincere sympathy to the members of her family: to her 
husband, Armando Gonzalez; to her daughters, Jina Abigail and 
Janiva Elisa Gonzalez; and to her other relatives and many friends; 
and, be it further
	RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be 
prepared for the members of her family and that when the Texas House 
of Representatives adjourns this day, it do so in memory of Elia 
Gonzalez.

                                                                          Flores

	I certify that H.R. No. 2145 was unanimously adopted by a 
rising vote of the House on May 27, 2005.
