	at the age of 53; and
	WHEREAS, Born in Amarillo on May 23, 1957, to Joe and Ann
	Cassidy, Susan Ann Cassidy graduated from Panhandle High School in
	1975 and then enrolled at Texas Tech University; while in college,
	she earned money by hemming dresses, cleaning dormitory rooms, and
	working in the cafeteria, and she graduated with a bachelor's
	degree in education in 1979; after completing her studies, she
	worked in schools in the Panhandle area for many years, teaching
	home economics, remedial reading, and English in the towns of
	Shamrock, Spearman, Big Spring, New Deal, Skellytown, and Hereford;
	she was an inspiring educator who challenged her students to expand
	their knowledge and abilities and encouraged their participation in
	science and history fairs; and
	WHEREAS, Ms. Cassidy was active in her community as a member
	of the Darlin' Dames Chapter of the Red Hat Society, as an education
	coordinator with Business Network International, as president of

	cross-stitching, arranging flowers, decorating wreaths, collecting
	antiques, cooking, playing games, reading, writing, and

	daughter's troops for 13 years, starting new groups in towns that
	did not already have one; she was known for her loyalty and
	thoughtfulness as well as for her adventurous and spontaneous
	nature; and
	WHEREAS, Susan Ann Cassidy lived a life that was rich in the
	intangibles that matter most, and although she is deeply missed,
	she will always be remembered with great admiration and affection;
	now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 82nd Texas
