|
|
|
WHEREAS, When they married many years ago, Neva and Edwin |

|
|
wedding anniversary; and |
|

|
|
while Edwin was serving in the military, and they were married in |

|
|
years of their marriage, yet Mr. and Mrs. LeBreton have continued |
|
|
to cherish traditional family values; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, After Ed's retirement from military service in |
|
|
1963, they moved the family to Lubbock; Ed returned to school and |

earned a degree from Texas Tech University, and Neva volunteered |
|
|
for a variety of organizations while raising their children; |

everyday living; and |

|
WHEREAS, Ed and Neva have been blessed with a wonderful |
|
|
family; their seven children, nine grandchildren, and six |

|
|
been living since 1974; and |
