SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 765
|
|
WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to |
|
recognize Frenchy and Teri Rheault for their many contributions |
|
to the Denton community; and |
|
WHEREAS, Frenchy and Teri Rheault are the owners of |
|
Frenchy's Lawn and Tree Service; since opening the business 28 |
|
years ago, they have more than lived up to the company's slogan, |
|
"We don't just mow lawns, we take care of people"; and |
|
WHEREAS, They support a wide range of causes and |
|
organizations by serving on boards, providing free landscaping |
|
services to nonprofit organizations, and parking one of their |
|
company's unique orange vans outside of fund-raising events to |
|
encourage participation; the many organizations that have |
|
benefited from their largesse and hard work include Friends of |
|
the Family, Hearts for Homes, Fred Moore Day Nursery School, |
|
Interfaith Ministries, and United Way of Denton County; and |
|
WHEREAS, A retired United States Air Force master sergeant |
|
and Vietnam veteran, Frenchy is noted for his undying patriotism |
|
and his support of the nation's armed forces; his company's |
|
well-known vans are often seen displaying American flags, and his |
|
support for such organizations as the Veterans of Foreign Wars, |
|
the Vietnam Veterans of America, and the Honor Flight Network is |
|
an inspiration to all who know him; and |
|
WHEREAS, Frenchy and Teri are also passionate advocates |
|
for people with disabilities, and they have donated motorized |
|
wheelchairs to disabled veterans and encouraged wheelchair |
|
accessibility at local businesses; they have had a positive |
|
impact on the lives of countless Denton citizens, and it is |
|
truly fitting that they receive special recognition; now, |
|
therefore, be it |
|
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 85th |
|
Legislature, hereby commend Frenchy and Teri Rheault on their |
|
commitment to community service and extend to them best wishes |
|
for continued success in all their endeavors; and, be it further |
|
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for |
|
this distinguished couple as an expression of esteem from the |
|
Texas Senate. |
