WHEREAS, U.S. Army Sergeant Eduardo F. Apodaca of San |
|
|
Elizario served his country with great honor and distinction as a |
|
|
member of the armed forces, and the occasion of Memorial Day on May |
|
|
26, 2025, provides a fitting opportunity to posthumously honor him |
|
|
for his dedicated military career; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, On Memorial Day each May, citizens across our state |
|
|
and nation come together for a day of solemn remembrance of those |
|
|
servicemen and servicewomen who so valiantly served their country |
|
|
and who gave their lives in the line of duty; each of these |
|
|
individuals made the noble decision to place country before self, |
|
|
and their sacrifice echoes through generations; their absence |
|
|
leaves a void that can never be fully filled, but their legacy is |
|
|
etched forever into the soul of our nation; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Sergeant Apodaca proudly served as a member of the |
|
|
U.S. Army and retired from the Texas Army National Guard; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Demonstrating the utmost dedication and bravery |
|
|
during his years in uniform, Eduardo Apodaca upheld the highest |
|
|
ideals of the United States armed forces, and his fellow citizens |
|
|
owe him a lasting debt of gratitude; now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 89th Texas |
|
|
Legislature hereby pay tribute to the life and service of U.S. Army |
|
|
Sergeant Eduardo F. Apodaca; 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 Eduardo |
|
|
Apodaca. |
