SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 698
       WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas joins the
citizens of Spring in congratulating Deen Femi Akinrinsola of Boy
Scout Troop 496, who recently achieved the rank of Eagle Scout;
and
       WHEREAS, This outstanding young man has brought honor to
himself, his family, his troop, his community, and his state in
earning the coveted Eagle Badge; and
       WHEREAS, Deen completed a service project that required
him to exercise his leadership abilities and at the same time
benefit his community; and
       WHEREAS, Few are privileged to be named among the ranks of
the elite corps of Eagle Scouts; only five out of every 100 Boy
Scouts earn this distinguished honor; and
       WHEREAS, Following the principles of the Scout oath and
promise, Deen advanced from Tenderfoot, Second, First, Star, and
Life classes to Eagle Scout; he is truly an exemplary citizen of
the State of Texas; now, therefore, be it
       RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas,
80th Legislature, hereby congratulate Deen Femi Akinrinsola on
attaining the rank of Eagle Scout and commend him on this great
achievement; and, be it further
       RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for
Eagle Scout Akinrinsola as an expression of esteem from the
Texas Senate.
