|
WHEREAS, The 60th birthday of an esteemed Texan is indeed |
|
cause for celebration, and Sheila Kay Rinehart of Plano marked this |
|
memorable milestone in her life on February 10, 2009; and |
|
WHEREAS, The daughter of Johnny Jim "Bud" Funderburgh and |
|
Patricia Funderburgh, the former Sheila Funderburgh was born in |
|
Richardson on February 10, 1949; she graduated from Richardson High |
|
School and attended Tyler Junior College before joining Braniff |
|
Airways as a flight attendant; and |
|
WHEREAS, On September 3, 1977, she married the love of her |
|
life, Neil Rinehart, and the couple went on to become the parents of |
|
two treasured children, Allison and Matthew, who to this day remain |
|
enthusiastic members of their mother's fan club and talk to her |
|
daily by phone; in 2003, Mrs. Rinehart welcomed her son-in-law, |
|
Justin, into the family with open arms, and, four years later, the |
|
Rineharts were blessed with a beloved grandson, Greyson, who calls |
|
Mrs. Rinehart by the affectionate nickname "Mimi"; and |
|
WHEREAS, This devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and friend |
|
is also known as "the decorator" for her impeccable interior design |
|
skills, but she is somewhat less noted for her expertise in the |
|
culinary arts, although family members do admire her ability to |
|
make reservations; and |
|
WHEREAS, A respected citizen of Plano, where she has lived |
|
since 1980, Mrs. Rinehart belongs to the Junior League and numerous |
|
other clubs and community organizations; while she reveals a soft |
|
side in her affection for her dogs and her loyal support of the |
|
Texas Rangers baseball team, she is a fearsome opponent at Pokeno |
|
and Canasta; and |
|
WHEREAS, Sheila Rinehart is occasionally prone to |
|
spontaneous twirling, an expression of the joie de vivre that |
|
brings laughter and warmth to the lives of all who are privileged to |
|
know her; now, therefore, be it |
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 81st Texas |
|
Legislature hereby congratulate Sheila Kay Rinehart on her 60th |
|
birthday and extend to her sincere best wishes for continued |
|
happiness; and, be it further |
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
prepared for Mrs. Rinehart as an expression of high regard by the |
|
Texas House of Representatives. |
