H.R. No. 1265 is a resolution honoring the memory of Patsy Ruth Spackey, a beloved community leader from The Woodlands, who passed away on November 9, 2024, at the age of 82. Born in Dallas, she had a rich family life, marrying Ted Spackey in 1961 and raising three children while also welcoming numerous grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Throughout her life, Mrs. Spackey was deeply involved in her community, serving in various capacities at local churches and engaging in historical societies, reflecting her passion for history and her connection to Montgomery County, where she was a descendant of the Texas flag's designer.

The resolution expresses condolences from the Texas House of Representatives to Mrs. Spackey's family and acknowledges her significant contributions to her community, including her leadership roles in several organizations and her recognition with awards for her volunteer work. Her legacy is celebrated not only by her family but also by the broader community, as noted by a letter of condolence from Governor Greg Abbott and First Lady Cecilia Abbott. The resolution concludes with a commitment to honor her memory as the House adjourns.
