graduated from Lakewood High School in Tacoma, Washington, and she
subsequently pursued studies at Angelo State University; she
married Officer Scott Smith of the Odessa Police Department in
1984, and they became the parents of two daughters, Krystal and
Kelsie; and

enthusiastic fan of the Houston Astros, and she also enjoyed taking
motorcycle rides with her loved ones and friends; and

forever hold a cherished place in the hearts of those whom she
blessed with her love, kindness, and friendship; now, therefore, be
it
       RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 88th Texas

and extend profound sympathy to all who mourn her passing; and, be
it further
