R E S O L U T I O N
         WHEREAS, Memories of a life filled with joyful times and
  meaningful accomplishments remain to comfort the family and friends
  of Lynda Townsend Brown of Austin, who passed away on August 3,
  2018, at the age of 81; and
         WHEREAS, Lynda Brown, who was affectionately called "Lynda
  Honey," was born in Bell County on July 29, 1937; she graduated in
  1955 from Salado High School, where she was a star player on the
  girls' basketball team; and
         WHEREAS, Ms. Brown moved to Austin in 1957 and pursued a
  varied career in banking, business, politics, and real estate;
  after serving on the campaign that led to the election of President
  George H. W. Bush in 1988, she worked with Representative Tom
  Craddick to establish the House Republican Caucus and was selected
  to serve as its first director during the 71st Legislative Session;
  she later held the position of support services manager for the
  House Property Department; in the mid-1990s, she turned her focus
  to her real estate business and eventually retired as one of the
  most successful agents in Austin; and
         WHEREAS, In all her endeavors, Ms. Brown enjoyed the love and
  support of her husband, J. Tim Brown, and she took great pride in
  her children, Regan, Mindy, Tracy, and Kevin, and her stepchildren,
  Scott, Amy, Susan, and David; and
         WHEREAS, Blessed with a warm, gregarious personality,
  Ms. Brown had a contagious smile and laugh and a natural ability to
  put others at ease; she was sustained by a strong faith, which
  endowed her with grace and resilience as she coped with daunting
  health struggles; through it all, she was fiercely devoted to her
  children and grandchildren, supporting them when they competed in
  baseball, basketball, and other sports and traveling across the
  country to cheer them on from the sidelines at marathons; and
         WHEREAS, Although she is deeply missed, Lynda Brown
  immeasurably enriched the lives of all who were fortunate enough to
  know her, and they will forever hold her close in their hearts; now,
  therefore, be it
         RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 86th Texas
  Legislature hereby pay tribute to the memory of Lynda Townsend
  Brown and extend sincere sympathy to the members of her family: to
  her husband, J. Tim Brown; to her children, Regan Ellmer and JoAnn
  Dalrymple, Mindy Ellmer and Charlie Geren, Tracy Townsend, and
  Kevin and Angie Guess; to her stepchildren, Scott and Sherri Brown,
  Amy and Jody McKenzie, Susan Nolley, and David and Cara Brown; to
  her brother, Lane Townsend, and his wife, Carolyn; to her sister,
  Margie Howerton; and to her many other relatives and friends; and,
  be it further
         RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
  prepared for her family and that when the Texas House of
  Representatives adjourns this day, it do so in memory of Lynda
  Townsend Brown.
