         WHEREAS, Hall Electric in Victoria celebrated its 50th
  anniversary on July 13, 2017; and
         WHEREAS, Originally established in 1954, the Hall Electric
  Company was purchased in 1967 by Jodie and Jeanette Turek; the
  business grew steadily under their leadership, and in the 1970s,
  needing more space, the Tureks moved the store to its current
  location on North Navarro Street; today, Hall Electric is owned and
  operated by the couple's children, Stephen Turek and Stacey Turek
  Rather, while Jodie Turek continues to serve as company president;
  and
         WHEREAS, Over the years, Hall Electric has provided
  commercial and residential electrical contracting services
  throughout the area, including for the emergency departments at
  Citizens Medical Center and DeTar Hospital, the Victoria Mall, and
  the Victoria County Courthouse; the Tureks have also opened two
  allied businesses, Hall Lighting & Design Center, which offers a
  wide range of lighting, furniture, and home décor, and Electrical
  Supply Warehouse; and
         WHEREAS, Locally owned and operated businesses play an
  important role in furthering the economic well-being of towns
  throughout the Lone Star State, and everyone associated with Hall
  Electric may indeed take great pride in the contributions the
  company has made to the Victoria community over the last five
  decades; now, therefore, be it
         RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 85th Texas
  Legislature, 1st Called Session, hereby commemorate the 50th
  anniversary of Hall Electric and extend to the Turek family and
  their employees sincere best wishes for continued success; and, be
  it further
         RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
  prepared for Hall Electric as an expression of high regard by the
  Texas House of Representatives.
