|
WHEREAS, Family and friends suffered an immeasurable loss |
|
|
with the tragic passing of Garrett Blake Ingram of College Station |
|
|
on December 31, 2022, at the age of 18; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Born in Temple on April 14, 2004, Garrett Ingram was |
|
|
the cherished son of Mandy Wells and the late Shane Ingram; he |
|
|
enjoyed the companionship of two siblings, Madison and Jake, and |
|
|
his family also included his stepfather, Chip Wells, his |
|
|
grandparents, his aunts and uncles, and his cousin Chase, who was |
|
|
more like a brother; Mr. Ingram graduated from Bryan High School in |
|
|
2022, and he had taken on rewarding work as a maintenance technician |
|
|
at Americase Fabrication and Construction in Ennis; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Whether on the job or with loved ones, Mr. Ingram |
|
|
exuded joy and kindness; fiercely loyal to his many friends, he |
|
|
never met a stranger, and he was known for his quick wit, |
|
|
self-deprecating humor, and infectious laugh, as well as a smile |
|
|
that could light up any room; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, No words can diminish the pain caused by a life cut |
|
|
short, but all who shared in the love and friendship of Garrett |
|
|
Ingram may find comfort in their treasured memories of this |
|
|
exceptional young man; now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 88th Texas |
|
|
Legislature hereby pay tribute to the memory of Garrett Blake |
|
|
Ingram and extend deepest condolences to the members of his family: |
|
|
to his mother, Mandy Wells; to his sister, Madison Ingram; to his |
|
|
brother, Jake Wells; to his maternal grandparents, Ricky and Susan |
|
|
Ray, and his paternal grandfather, Don Ingram; to his stepfather, |
|
|
Chip Wells; to his aunts and uncles, Keri and Coby Rapier, Sherri |
|
|
and Tommy Ray, and Melissa Ingram; to his cousin, Chase Harton; and |
|
|
to all others who mourn his passing; and, be it further |
|
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
|
prepared for his family and that when the Texas House of |
|
|
Representatives adjourns this day, it do so in memory of Garrett |
|
|
Ingram. |
