have earned the heartfelt gratitude of the Texans they serve; now, |
|
|
therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 87th Texas |
|
|
Legislature hereby honor the physicians, nurses, administrators, |
|
|
and other staff members at Rio Grande Regional Hospital for their |
|
|
inspiring efforts during the COVID-19 pandemic and commend them on |
|
|
a job well done; and, be it further |

|
|
prepared for the hospital as an expression of high regard by the |
|
