WHEREAS, Those individuals who step forward to help in times |
|
of crisis are indeed worthy of admiration, and Jersey Village mayor |
|
Andrew Mitcham and his wife, Michelle Mitcham, distinguished |
|
themselves through their selfless service to their fellow Texans |
|
during Winter Storm Uri; and |
|
WHEREAS, In February 2021, millions of people across the |
|
state experienced the devastating impact of the winter storm, which |
|
caused widespread power outages as temperatures plunged to record |
|
lows; and |
|
WHEREAS, Andrew and Michelle Mitcham are the founders of |
|
Senate Avenue Brewing Company, a community-owned nanobrewery and |
|
taphouse in Jersey Village; after power outages left many of their |
|
neighbors without electricity or heat, the couple offered their |
|
brewery as a warming station, where they used their resources to |
|
help purify water and distribute both food and clean water to those |
|
in need; and |
|
WHEREAS, Andrew and Michelle Mitcham demonstrated great |
|
compassion and generosity toward their fellow Texans during a very |
|
challenging time for their community, and it is indeed fitting that |
|
their efforts be recognized; now, therefore, be it |
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 87th Texas |
|
Legislature hereby commend Andrew and Michelle Mitcham for helping |
|
their neighbors during Winter Storm Uri and extend to them sincere |
|
best wishes for the future; and, be it further |
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
prepared for Andrew and Michelle Mitcham as an expression of high |
|
regard by the Texas House of Representatives. |
