SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 5
|
|
|
WHEREAS, Carolyn Burton Propes and her husband, William |
|
|
Harry Propes will celebrate the memorable occasion of their 50th |
|
|
wedding anniversary on September 2, 2011; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Carolyn Burton, born in Carlisle, Texas, and |
|
|
William Propes, born in Kilgore, Texas, were united in matrimony |
|
|
at Carlisle Baptist Church on a hot, humid day in 1961; through |
|
|
the years they have nurtured a fulfilling marriage, and today |
|
|
they take justifiable pride in their fine family, which includes |
|
|
two sons, Barry and Jay Propes, and three glorious grandchildren, |
|
|
Alexandra, Walker, and William Propes; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Mr. and Mrs. Propes are long-standing, respected |
|
|
members of the Tyler and Dallas communities; Mrs. Propes is an |
|
|
accountant who has worked for financial institutions, currently |
|
|
works at Guidestone Finance, and is very active in her church as a |
|
|
member of the Park Cities Baptist choir; Mr. Propes is a safety |
|
|
engineer with Anchor Risk Management Services and also lends his |
|
|
voice to the Park Cities Baptist choir; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, A golden wedding anniversary is a celebration of |
|
|
love that has stood the test of time; in the case of Carolyn and |
|
|
William Propes, this test has included the challenges of multiple |
|
|
moves, from East Texas to Fort Sam Houston, Abilene, |
|
|
fortieth-anniversary |
|
|
vacation to Hawaii in September of 2001, when traveling was a |
|
|
challenge; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, This pair, however, has found the key to making it |
|
|
work; Carolyn and William Propes have now shared a richly |
|
|
rewarding five decades together, and the future looks certain to |
|
|
be infused with the same love, wisdom, and joy that have brought |
|
|
them to this wonderful milestone; now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 82nd |
|
|
Legislature, 1st Called Session, hereby congratulate Carolyn and |
|
|
William Propes on their golden wedding anniversary and extend to |
|
|
them sincere best wishes for continued happiness; and, be it |
|
|
further |
|
|
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for |
