|
|
WHEREAS, A full and generous life drew to a close with the |
|
passing of Barbara Vera Canales of Freer on March 27, 2014, at the |
|
age of 79; and |
|
WHEREAS, Mrs. Canales was born in Rios on November 3, 1934, |
|
to Ernesto and Braulia Vera; following her marriage to Jose Canales |
|
in 1954, Mrs. Canales devoted herself to her home and to their |
|
family, which grew to include three children, Ricardo, Carolina, |
|
and Corina; in later years, she also took great pride in her six |
|
grandchildren, Amanda, Arnoldo, Elizabeth, Ruben, Debbie, and |
|
Darlene; and |
|
WHEREAS, After her children graduated from high school, |
|
Mrs. Canales completed her GED; she wanted to earn a bachelor's |
|
degree as well, but she suffered a stroke while attending college; |
|
subsequently, she remained a strong proponent of education, and she |
|
played an important role in civic life, working for the election and |
|
reelection of her husband during his 32 years as justice of the |
|
peace; a natural campaigner, she won over countless people with her |
|
grace, warm smile, and kind and friendly nature; and |
|
WHEREAS, Barbara Canales brought joy to innumerable people, |
|
and although she is deeply missed, she will forever hold a special |
|
place in the hearts of those who were fortunate enough to know her; |
|
now, therefore, be it |
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 84th Texas |
|
Legislature hereby pay tribute to the memory of Barbara V. Canales |
|
and extend sincere sympathy to her loved ones; and, be it further |
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
prepared for the members of her family and that when the Texas House |
|
of Representatives adjourns this day, it do so in memory of Barbara |
|
V. Canales. |
