The resolution honors the memory of Lila James Bonner, a nine-year-old girl from Dallas who tragically passed away on July 4, 2025, due to flooding in the Hill Country. Lila, born on June 26, 2016, was a beloved daughter to Blake and Caitlin Bonner and a role model for her younger sisters, Scarlett and Wynn. She was actively involved in her community, attending John S. Bradfield Elementary School, where she made friends easily and excelled in sports, particularly as a goalie for the Highland Park Scots Club soccer team. Lila had a passion for animals and dreamed of becoming a veterinarian, which inspired her family to establish Lila's Light, a foundation dedicated to supporting animal rescue.

The resolution expresses profound condolences to Lila's family, including her parents, sisters, grandparents, and extended relatives, acknowledging the deep impact she had on their lives and the community. It emphasizes the joy and light Lila brought to those around her, and it concludes with a request for an official copy of the resolution to be prepared for her family, ensuring that the Texas House of Representatives adjourns in her memory.
