WHEREAS, Allie Estelle White, the beloved daughter of Chris |
|
|
and Jamie White, passed away on September 29, 2019; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Born on December 8, 2016, Allie was a source of |
|
|
abundant joy to her family, which included her siblings, Madison, |
|
|
Tyler, and Brady; though small, this vivacious little girl had a |
|
|
personality that was larger than life, and she instantly endeared |
|
|
herself to everyone she encountered; she was sweet natured, kind, |
|
|
and gracious, and she was always at her happiest when she was |
|
|
spending time with her family; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Allie could often be found outside, playing in the |
|
|
sand and dirt, collecting rocks, and kicking around the soccer ball |
|
|
with her father and brothers; naturally athletic and drawn to |
|
|
gymnastics, she was also fond of princesses, particularly Moana and |
|
|
Rapunzel, and she enjoyed playing with dolls alongside her older |
|
|
sister, with whom she shared an especially close bond; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, The tragic circumstances of Allie's passing have led |
|
|
her family to establish a nonprofit organization called Allie's |
|
|
Way; the organization is dedicated to protecting children from |
|
|
distracted drivers by raising awareness, advocating for hands-free |
|
|
laws, and promoting safety measures such as speed bumps, |
|
|
particularly in parks and other recreation areas that are |
|
|
frequented by children; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Although Allie White's time on this earth was far |
|
|
too brief, the memory of this precious little girl will continue to |
|
|
live on in the hearts of the many people who loved and cherished |
|
|
her; now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 87th Texas |
|
|
Legislature hereby pay tribute to the life of Allie Estelle White |
|
|
and extend profound condolences to the members of her family: to her |
|
|
parents, Chris and Jamie White; to her sister, Madison Alise White; |
|
|
to her brothers, Tyler Preston White and Brady Christopher White; |
|
|
to her grandparents, Lisa Jones, Jim and Sally Petermann, and |
|
|
Richard and Marcy White; to her great-grandparents, Estelle |
|
|
Petermann and Arlen and Mary Jones; to her aunts and uncles, Cheri |
|
|
and David Armstrong, Wendy and Jeff Barley, and Brent and Alison |
|
|
White; to her great-aunts, great-uncles, and cousins; and to all |
|
|
who mourn her passing; 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 Allie |
|
|
Estelle White. |
