  with the tragic passing of Uziyah Sergio Garcia of Uvalde on
  May 24, 2022, at the age of 10; and
         WHEREAS, Uzi Garcia was born in San Angelo on August 13, 2011,

  affectionate young boy who treasured his family and particularly
  enjoyed spending time with his siblings; he demonstrated his

  Switch or Oculus, and he found other outlets for his abundant energy
  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
         WHEREAS, Although Uzi Garcia's journey on this earth ended
  far too soon, he will forever hold a special place in the hearts of
  all those who were privileged to share in the blessing of his life;
  now, therefore, be it
         RESOLVED, That the Senate of the 88th Texas Legislature

  Sergio Garcia and Mandy Marie Renfro; to his guardians, Brett and
  Nikki Cross; to his brothers, Aiden and Jaxon Cross; to his sisters,
  Alissa Jackson, Desiaya Garcia, JoJo Cross, and Mykah "Mike"
  Garcia; to his other relatives and friends; and to the countless
  others in Uvalde and beyond 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 Senate adjourns this
  day, it do so in memory of Uziyah Garcia.
