|
WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is proud to |
|
recognize the Lake Worth Police Department on the occasion of |
|
Police Week in Texas; and |
|
WHEREAS, Peace officers are a select group of brave men and |
|
women who dedicate their lives to the protection and safekeeping |
|
of their fellow citizens and who serve our nation and this great |
|
state, regardless of dangerous circumstances and risks to their |
|
personal safety; and |
|
WHEREAS, As a tribute to these invaluable civil servants, |
|
the 87th United States Congress and President John F. Kennedy |
|
designated May 15 as Peace Officers Memorial Day and the week of |
|
May 15 as Police Week; and |
|
WHEREAS, Proud traditions since 1962, these observances |
|
provide an excellent opportunity for citizens to reflect on the |
|
far-reaching responsibilities and challenges of law enforcement |
|
duty and to honor active peace officers, as well as those who have |
|
fallen, for their exceptional service and sacrifice; now, |
|
therefore, be it |
|
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 84th |
