The resolution celebrates the 60th wedding anniversary of Charles and Margaret Semple, who will mark this significant milestone on July 31, 2025. The couple, who met at Texas Christian University and married in Houston in 1965, have built a loving family that includes two sons, four grandchildren, and a daughter-in-law. Residing in Midland, they have previously lived in New York and Houston, with Charles working in the oil and gas industry and Margaret contributing to the community through her roles in education and hospice care.

The resolution highlights the Semples' shared interests and contributions to their community, including their love for travel, family gatherings, and various hobbies. Charles enjoys reading and restoring vintage cars, while Margaret is active in volunteer work and creative pursuits. The Texas Legislature expresses its congratulations and best wishes for their continued happiness, and an official copy of the resolution will be prepared as a token of esteem from the Texas House of Representatives and Senate.
