         WHEREAS, The Fabens Veterans Park Committee is cohosting the
  Veterans Celebration at Fabens Veterans Park on November 10, 2023;
  and
         WHEREAS, In addition to the Veterans Park Committee, the
  Fabens Veterans Celebration is also being hosted by the Fabens High
  School Student Council; the event will recognize local veterans for
  their courageous service and will feature keynote speaker Colonel
  Kirby "Bo" Dennis; and
         WHEREAS, Originally celebrated as Armistice Day in
  recognition of the end of World War I, Veterans Day now honors all
  who have served in the armed forces, including the former members of
  the U.S. Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, Space Force, Coast
  Guard, and National Guard; generations of Texans have been inspired
  by a deep sense of patriotism and answered their nation's call to
  duty, and it is indeed appropriate that we reflect on all that has
  been asked of those who have served and on the immeasurable
  fortitude and valor with which they have met the challenges before
  them; now, therefore, be it
         RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 88th Texas
  Legislature, 3rd Called Session, hereby commemorate the 2023 Fabens
  Veterans Celebration and honor the members of the Fabens Veterans
  Park Committee for their contributions to this noteworthy event;
  and, be it further
         RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
  prepared for the Fabens Veterans Park Committee as an expression of
  high regard by the Texas House of Representatives.
