         WHEREAS, A 1974 graduate of Mansfield High School,
  Mr. Sutterfield received a bachelor's degree in health and physical
  education from The University of Texas at Arlington in 1981; the
  following year, he joined Arlington ISD as a member of the faculty
  at Bailey Junior High, where he coached football and track and

  for Arlington ISD, responsible for educating the district's faculty
  on ways to integrate technology into the classroom; in 2000, he
  accepted a position as manager of the district's help desk, and his
  expertise in computer science allowed him to create a help ticket
  and asset tracking system that the district used for two decades;
  and
         WHEREAS, In all his endeavors, Mr. Sutterfield has enjoyed
  the love and support of his wife, Martha, with whom he has shared 35

  Legislature hereby congratulate Richard Sutterfield on his
  retirement from the Arlington Independent School District and
  extend to him sincere best wishes for the future; and, be it further
         RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
  prepared for Mr. Sutterfield as an expression of high regard by the
  Texas House of Representatives.
