|
|
anniversary of Mike and Dorothy Kight, and this joyous event |
|
|
provides a fitting opportunity to reflect on their memorable |
|
|
journey together as husband and wife; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Both natives of Houston, Michael John Robson Kight, |
|
|
Sr., and the former Dorothy Sue Isaac first met as teenagers, and |
|
|
they began dating in their early 20s; they were joined in matrimony |
|
|
in 1961 at a ceremony held at St. Anne's Catholic Church in their |
|
|
hometown; through the years, they have been blessed with a |
|
|
treasured family that includes three sons, Michael John Robson |
|
|
Kight, Jr., and his wife, Renee, Richard Isaac Kight and his wife, |
|
|
Catherine, and William Allen Kight and his wife, Holli, as well as |
|
|
nine grandchildren, Michael John Robson Kight III, Jake William |
|
|
Kight, Anne Marie Kight, Ashley Renee Kight, Charles James Kight, |
|
|
Kristin Ann Kight, William Richard Kight, Bryan Allen Kight, and |
|
|
Dorothy Elizabeth Kight; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Mr. Kight owned and operated a Kwik Kopy Printing |
|
|
franchise in Houston for 25 years; under his direction, it became |
|
|
one of the most successful Kwik Kopy locations in the world, and he |
|
|
served on the Kwik Kopy International board of directors for 19 |
|
|
years; Mrs. Kight taught school for three years before dedicating |
|
|
herself full time to her home and her family; following the couple's |
|
|
retirement in 2000, they moved to a piece of property that has been |
|
|
in their family for nearly a century on the San Bernard River near |
|
|
Sweeny; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, The five decades of marriage that Mr. and Mrs. Kight |
|
|
have shared is eloquent affirmation of the meaning of love and |
|
|
commitment, and their enduring union is an inspiration to all who |
|
|
know them; now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 82nd Texas |
|
|
Legislature hereby congratulate Mike and Dorothy Kight on their |
|
|
golden wedding anniversary and extend to them sincere best wishes |
|
|
for continued happiness; and, be it further |
|
|

|
|
prepared for the couple as an expression of high regard by the Texas |
