H.R. No. 161

	R E S O L U T I O N
	WHEREAS, The Fabens Veterans Park Committee is cohosting the
	Veterans Celebration at Fabens Veterans Park on November 10, 2023;
	and
	WHEREAS, In addition to the Veterans Park Committee, the
	Fabens Veterans Celebration is also being hosted by the Fabens High
	School Student Council; the event will recognize local veterans for
	their courageous service and will feature keynote speaker Colonel
	Kirby "Bo" Dennis; and
	WHEREAS, Originally celebrated as Armistice Day in
	recognition of the end of World War I, Veterans Day now honors all
	who have served in the armed forces, including the former members of
	the U.S. Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, Space Force, Coast
	Guard, and National Guard; generations of Texans have been inspired
	by a deep sense of patriotism and answered their nation's call to
	duty, and it is indeed appropriate that we reflect on all that has
	been asked of those who have served and on the immeasurable
	fortitude and valor with which they have met the challenges before
	them; now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 88th Texas
	Legislature, 3rd Called Session, hereby commemorate the 2023 Fabens
	Veterans Celebration and honor the members of the Fabens Veterans
	Park Committee for their contributions to this noteworthy event;
	and, be it further
	RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
	prepared for the Fabens Veterans Park Committee as an expression of
	high regard by the Texas House of Representatives.
	Gonz lez of El Paso
