SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 20

WHEREAS, Patrick Cardillo of Boy Scouts of America Troop No. 567 in Katy has attained the rank of Eagle Scout, and this accomplishment truly merits special recognition; and

WHEREAS, Receiving the Eagle Scout insignia is a significant honor, bestowed on only a small fraction of those who enter the scouting movement; in the course of meeting the rank's demanding criteria, Mr. Cardillo earned the requisite 21 merit badges and successfully completed an Eagle Scout project of benefit to his community; and

WHEREAS, This fine young Texan has demonstrated outstanding leadership ability throughout his scouting career, winning the respect and admiration of his fellow scouts as he worked toward the highest rank that scouting offers; and

WHEREAS, Eagle Scout Cardillo's dedication to excellence and his perseverance in the pursuit of his goals have proven him worthy to stand among scouting's elite, and he may indeed reflect with pride on a job well done; now, therefore, be it

RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 81st Legislature, 1st Called Session, hereby congratulate Patrick Cardillo on achieving the rank of Eagle Scout and extend to him sincere best wishes for continued success and happiness; and, be it further

RESOLVED, That an official copy of this Resolution be prepared for Mr. Cardillo as an expression of high regard from the Texas Senate.
