H.R. No. 1286 |
|
||
WHEREAS, A full and generous life drew to a close with the | ||
passing of Barbara Vera Canales of Freer on March 27, 2014, at the | ||
age of 79; and | ||
WHEREAS, Mrs. Canales was born in Rios on November 3, 1934, | ||
to Ernesto and Braulia Vera; following her marriage to Jose Canales | ||
in 1954, Mrs. Canales devoted herself to her home and to their | ||
family, which grew to include three children, Ricardo, Carolina, | ||
and Corina; in later years, she also took great pride in her six | ||
grandchildren, Amanda, Arnoldo, Elizabeth, Ruben, Debbie, and | ||
Darlene; and | ||
WHEREAS, After her children graduated from high school, | ||
Mrs. Canales completed her GED; she wanted to earn a bachelor's | ||
degree as well, but she suffered a stroke while attending college; | ||
subsequently, she remained a strong proponent of education, and she | ||
played an important role in civic life, working for the election and | ||
reelection of her husband during his 32 years as justice of the | ||
peace; a natural campaigner, she won over countless people with her | ||
grace, warm smile, and kind and friendly nature; and | ||
WHEREAS, Barbara Canales brought joy to innumerable people, | ||
and although she is deeply missed, she will forever hold a special | ||
place in the hearts of those who were fortunate enough to know her; | ||
now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 84th Texas | ||
Legislature hereby pay tribute to the memory of Barbara V. Canales | ||
and extend sincere sympathy to her loved ones; and, be it further | ||
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be | ||
prepared for the members of her family and that when the Texas House | ||
of Representatives adjourns this day, it do so in memory of Barbara | ||
V. Canales. | ||
