H.R. No. 1649

	R E S O L U T I O N
	WHEREAS, Citizens from across the Lone Star State are
	gathering at the Capitol on May 6, 2013, for the Peace Officers'
	Memorial Ceremony, held in honor of those brave men and women who
	have lost their lives in the line of duty; and
	WHEREAS, Texans everywhere are indebted to members of the law
	enforcement profession who, by their selfless devotion to the
	public welfare, have enabled us to enjoy the benefits of a peaceful
	and orderly society; and
	WHEREAS, Too seldom recognized and sometimes taken for
	granted by the public they so faithfully serve, these intrepid
	individuals daily risk their lives in order to preserve domestic
	tranquility and to protect their fellow residents; and
	WHEREAS, Constable Brian David Bachmann of the Brazos County
	Constable's Office, Precinct 1, earned the respect and admiration
	of his peers for his commitment to serving the greater good, and his
	contributions will not soon be forgotten; and
	WHEREAS, Throughout his tenure, which spanned 20 years,
	Constable Bachmann demonstrated the loyalty, courage, and
	self-sacrifice that are consistent with the highest ideals of the
	law enforcement profession; and
	WHEREAS, Killed in the line of duty on August 13, 2012, at the
	age of 41, Constable Bachmann will long be missed by his family, his
	fellow peace officers, and the entire community; and
	WHEREAS, Though his life ended far too soon, Constable
	Bachmann left behind a notable legacy that will forever be honored
	by those who follow in this difficult but essential profession;
	now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 83rd Texas
	Legislature hereby pay tribute to the life of Constable Brian David
	Bachmann of the Brazos County Constable's Office, Precinct 1, and
	extend deepest sympathy to his relatives, friends, and fellow
	officers; and, be it further
	RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
	prepared for his family and that when the Texas House of
	Representatives adjourns this day, it do so in memory of Constable
	Bachmann.
