|
|
WHEREAS, A distinguished career in education and the arts is |
|
drawing to a close at the end of the 2008-2009 school year as E. A. |
|
Tanner retires as choir director at Rowe High School in McAllen; and |
|
WHEREAS, Called "Amby" by his friends and colleagues, Mr. |
|
Tanner has built a distinguished reputation during his tenure at |
|
Rowe, and the much-anticipated musicals performed by the choir have |
|
played to capacity crowds each year since 1993, with tickets |
|
frequently selling out soon after they go on sale; and |
|
WHEREAS, Under Mr. Tanner's direction, the shows feature |
|
superb singing that is enhanced by colorful costumes and innovative |
|
staging, and his assured management has consistently inspired the |
|
choir members to perform at the peak of their abilities; and |
|
WHEREAS, Amby Tanner has made invaluable contributions to the |
|
McAllen community and the students of Rowe High School, and it is |
|
indeed a pleasure to pay tribute to his notable career as he embarks |
|
on an exciting new chapter in his life; now, therefore, be it |
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 81st Texas |
|
Legislature hereby congratulate E. A. Tanner on his retirement as |
|
choir director at Rowe High School and extend to him sincere best |
|
wishes for continued happiness; and, be it further |
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
prepared for Mr. Tanner as an expression of high regard by the Texas |
|
House of Representatives. |
