WHEREAS, Friends and family are mourning the loss of Laura |
|
|
Louise McClung of Dallas, who passed away on April 11, 2009; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, The daughter of Karl and Lula Bronson White, the |
|
|
former Laura White was initially raised in Lancaster before moving |
|
|
to Dallas during her childhood; she attended Hockaday School and |
|
|
Southern Methodist University and was a lifelong member of the |
|
|
Preston Road Church of Christ; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Although she knew the sorrow of losing her first |
|
|
husband, John Robert Marshall, who was killed in World War II, she |
|
|
had the good fortune to find love a second time with Dr. Hugh L. |
|
|
McClung; the couple enjoyed a rewarding marriage that extended |
|
|
until Dr. McClung passed away, and they raised a loving family that |
|
|
included their two children, Laura and Hugh; and |

|
|
community, with memberships in the Dallas Woman's Club, the Dallas |
|
|
Doctors Wives Auxiliary, the Seneca Book Review, the Marianne |
|
|
Scruggs Garden Club, the Dallas Garden Club, and the Garden Study |
|
|
Club; her passion and skill for flower arranging were widely |
|
|
respected, and she won several blue ribbons and two tricolor |
|
|
ribbons for her work; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Known for the humor, kindness, and wisdom she shared |
|
|
with her loved ones, Laura McClung was devoted to her family and |
|
|
also took great comfort in her spiritual faith; she is deeply |
|
|
missed, but she will forever hold a place in the hearts of those who |
|
|
held her dear; now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 81st Texas |
|
|
Legislature hereby pay tribute to the life of Laura Louise McClung |
|
|
and extend sincere sympathy to the members of her family: to her |
|
|
children, Laura Bronson McClung and Dr. Hugh Lawson McClung; and to |
|
|
her other relatives and friends; and, be it further |
|
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
|
prepared for her family and that when the Texas House of |
|
|
Representatives adjourns this day, it do so in memory of Laura |
|
|
McClung. |
