|
WHEREAS, Mr. Zivley was a man of many interests, passions, |
|
and vocations; he was a salesman, sports official, and manager of |

|
and |

|
member and supporter of the National Rifle Association; he |
|
closely followed many sports teams, notably The University of |
|
Texas Longhorns, New York Yankees, and Round Rock Express; and |
|
WHEREAS, A man of courage, strength, and compassion, he |
|
gave generously to others, and his wisdom, warmth, and good humor |
|
will not be forgotten by those who knew him; and |
|
WHEREAS, He was a devoted husband, father, and |
|
grandfather, and he will continue to live in the hearts and minds |
|
of those he left behind; now, therefore, be it |
|
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 81st |
