H.R. No. 479
R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, On March 13, 2003, the El Paso Commission for Women
is posthumously inducting Ann M. Enriquez into its Hall of Fame; and
WHEREAS, Established in 1985, the commission is composed of
El Paso citizens who are committed to the pursuit of equal rights
and responsibilities for all women; inductees to the organization's
Hall of Fame are recognized in one of five categories, including
arts, civic leadership, education, professional, and public
service; and
WHEREAS, Selected for the civic leadership category, Ms.
Enriquez used her position as the regional public affairs director
with Southern Union Gas to enhance the lives of her fellow Texans,
maintaining that her position was not about gaining recognition for
her company, but for contributing to the betterment of the
community; and
WHEREAS, Over the years, she had worked diligently in behalf
of numerous worthwhile civic programs, including the San Elizario
Independent School District, the R. E. Thomason Hospital Board, the
City-County Health and Environment District Board, Girl Scouts of
America, the YWCA, the El Paso Diabetes Association, and the
chamber of commerce; and
WHEREAS, The success of the State of Texas, the strength of
our communities, and the overall vitality of American society
depend on the dedication of people like Ms. Enriquez, who use their
considerable talents and resources to serve others, and it is a
privilege to join in paying tribute to her many achievements at this
time; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 78th Texas
Legislature hereby honor the late Ann M. Enriquez on her induction
into the El Paso Commission for Women's Hall of Fame.
