|
|
Rodeo; and |

|
expenses; the goat, whose name is Fred, was donated to the petting |

|
|
WHEREAS, The generosity of these caring public servants has |
|
|
made a positive difference in the life of Mr. Bolek, and their |
|
|
kindness is truly deserving of special recognition; now, therefore, |
|
|
be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 87th Texas |
|
|
