  In Memory
  of
  Anna Calhoun and Harper Provenza
 
         WHEREAS, Words cannot adequately express the sorrow felt
  by the loving family of 23-year-old Anna Lee Calhoun and her
  two-year-old daughter, Harper Marie Provenza, who passed away on
  May 4, 2021; and
         WHEREAS, Anna Lee Calhoun was born in Tuscaloosa, Alabama,
  on September 17, 1997, to Donna McNatt and Ronnie Calhoun; she
  was a standout member of the volleyball team at Holy Spirit
  Catholic High School in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, and after
  graduating, she enrolled as a biology major at Midwestern State
  University in Wichita Falls, where she excelled in her studies; and
         WHEREAS, Ms. Calhoun shared an inseparable bond with her
  beloved daughter, Harper, who was born on July 6, 2018; just like
  her mother, Harper exuded joy and happiness, and her bright smile
  and abundant laughter made her the center of attention everywhere
  she went; and
         WHEREAS, Ms. Calhoun's life was further blessed by the
  companionship of a close-knit group of friends, with whom she
  made many wonderful memories, and she especially treasured the
  special connection she shared with her best friend, Jason
  Gribble; and
         WHEREAS, Although the loss of this beloved mother and child
  brings tremendous sadness, Anna Calhoun and Harper Provenza
  enriched the lives of everyone around them in ways beyond measure,
  and they will forever hold a cherished place in the hearts of the
  many people who held them dear; now, therefore, be it
         RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 87th
  Legislature, hereby pay tribute to the memory of Anna Lee Calhoun
  and Harper Marie Provenza and extend deepest condolences to the
  members of their family: to Ms. Calhoun's mother, Donna McNatt,
  her stepmother, Cheryl Calhoun, her grandmother, Mimi, and her
  aunts, uncles, cousins, and extended family in Alabama; to
  Harper's other grandmother, Becky Provenza, her
  great-grandmother, Lois Whitaker, and her numerous aunts,
  uncles, and cousins; and to all those who mourn their passing;
  and, be it further
         RESOLVED, That an official copy of this Resolution be
  prepared for their family and that when the Texas Senate adjourns
  this day, it do so in memory of Anna Lee Calhoun and Harper Marie
  Provenza.
