|
| |
| |
|
|
In Memory |
|
|
of |
|
|
Nicolis Terrel Williams |
| |
|
|
WHEREAS, There are no words that can diminish the pain |
|
|
caused by a young life cut short, but all who shared in the love |
|
|
and friendship of Nicolis Terrel Williams of Sugar Land may find |
|
|
comfort in their memories of this special young man, who died on |
|
|
February 11, 2011, at the age of 20; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, The son of Gregory Williams and Arlene Williams, |
|
|
Nico Williams was born on November 13, 1990; he played saxophone |
|
|
in the Kempner High School Cougar Marching Band and enjoyed |
|
|
playing soccer; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Mr. Williams was a junior economics major at Texas |
|
|
A&M University; he was looking forward to studying in Ireland |
|
|
during the summer of 2011 and had his sights set on attending law |
|
|
school; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, A proud Aggie and a caring young man, Mr. Williams |
|
|
assisted his fellow students through his work with Fish Camp, the |
|
|
freshman orientation program, as well as with the Freshman |
|
|
Leaders in Progress program and with CARPOOL, a student-run group |
|
|
that provides free rides home on selected nights; his generosity |
|
|

|
|
of organ donation has helped to save the lives of five |
|
|
individuals; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Although his time on this earth was far too brief, |
|
|

|
|
forever be remembered with admiration and affection; now, |
|
|

|
|
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 82nd |
