SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 108
|
|
WHEREAS, The 90th birthday of an esteemed Texan is indeed |
|
cause for celebration, and Jeanne Botto Rodgers marked this |
|
significant milestone in her life on July 10, 2017; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Born in 1927, the former Jeanne Botto was joined |
|
in marriage to George Rodgers, and they became the proud parents |
|
of three children, David, Ronnie, and Cindy; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Mr. and Mrs. Rodgers were charter members of the |
|
Evangelical Presbyterian Church in Marshall, and if the church |
|
doors were open, Mrs. Rodgers was doubtless there to assist in |
|
some capacity; she taught Sunday school for children in the fourth |
|
through the sixth grade, and she was involved in the prayer |
|
group, Women in Ministry, and in various Bible studies; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Widowed in 1992, Mrs. Rodgers now resides in Dallas |
|
with her son David; through the years, she has been blessed with |
|
five grandchildren and a great-grandchild; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Jeanne Rodgers has witnessed a panorama of change |
|
over the course of nine decades, and she has met life's |
|
challenges and opportunities with dignity and grace, earning the |
|
deep admiration of all who are privileged to know her; now, |
|
therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 85th |
|
Legislature, 1st Called Session, hereby congratulate Jeanne |
|
Botto Rodgers on her 90th birthday and extend to her sincere best |
|
wishes for continued happiness; and, be it further |
|
|
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for |
|
Mrs. Rodgers as an expression of high regard from the Texas Senate. |
