  recognize Charles Duncan for the heroism he displayed in saving a
  woman from a burning automobile; and
 
         WHEREAS, On March 14, 2017, Charles Duncan was traveling on
  US Highway 183 when his truck was hit from behind by another

  an open field, where a fire broke out under the hood and quickly
  spread to the grass surrounding the vehicle; and
 
         WHEREAS, Without regard for his own safety, Mr. Duncan
  rushed to the vehicle and was able to help the woman escape before
  an explosion further damaged her automobile; and
 
         WHEREAS, Charles Duncan exhibited great bravery and quick
  thinking in rescuing the woman from her burning vehicle, and it
  is truly fitting that he receive special recognition; now,
  therefore, be it
 
         RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 85th
  Legislature, hereby commend Charles Duncan on his heroic actions
  and extend to him best wishes for the future; and, be it further
 
         RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for
  him as an expression of high regard from the Texas Senate.
