affectionate young boy who treasured his family and particularly |
|
|
enjoyed spending time with his siblings; he demonstrated his |
|
|
fun-loving but competitive nature when gaming on his Nintendo |
|

in activities like swimming, playing basketball, jumping on |

trampolines, and racing his friends around the playground at |
|
|
school; he also loved being silly and making everyone laugh with his |
|
|
jokes; and |
|

|
|
all those who were privileged to share in the blessing of his life; |
|
|
now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 88th Texas |

|
the countless others in Uvalde and beyond who mourn his passing; |

|
|
prepared for his family and that when the Texas House of |
