The resolution honors the memory of Don Wesely, a notable public servant from Nebraska who was born in David City and graduated from the University of Nebraska at Lincoln. Wesely served in the Nebraska Legislature from 1979 to 1999, where he held various leadership roles, including chairman of several key committees. After his legislative career, he became the mayor of Lincoln, overseeing significant developments such as the opening of new sports facilities, libraries, parks, and the initiation of the Antelope Valley Project.

The resolution expresses the Legislature's condolences to Wesely's family following his passing on March 19, 2025, and acknowledges his lifelong commitment to public service and his contributions to the state. A copy of the resolution will be sent to his family as a gesture of respect and remembrance.
