The resolution honors the memory of twin sisters Hanna Rose Lawrence and Rebecca Mark Lawrence, who tragically lost their lives at the age of eight on July 4, 2025. Born on March 17, 2017, in Dallas, the sisters were cherished by their parents, Lacy and John Lawrence, and their older sister, Harper, along with their extended family. Despite their distinct personalities, Hanna and Rebecca shared a deep sisterly bond. Hanna was known for her extroverted charm and leadership qualities, aspiring to open a restaurant to help those in need, while Rebecca, the more reserved twin, had a passion for animals and fashion, dreaming of becoming a teacher.
The resolution expresses profound sorrow over the loss of these vibrant young girls, who left a lasting impact on those around them. It extends heartfelt condolences to their family members, including their parents, sister, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends. The Texas House of Representatives resolves to pay tribute to Hanna and Rebecca by preparing an official copy of the resolution for their family and adjourning in their memory.
