H.R. No. 50 is a resolution honoring the life of Nelma Jean Speed Bonner, who passed away on July 24, 2025, at the age of 95. Born on February 22, 1930, in the Ward Prairie community, she was the daughter of Clarence and Jessie Pearl Renfro Speed. Jean Bonner grew up in a large family with four brothers and three sisters, received her early education in a one-room schoolhouse, and graduated from Sunset High School after her family moved to Oak Cliff. She was married to Jim Billie Bonner Jr. and was a devoted mother to their two sons, Buck and Biff, as well as a loving grandmother and great-grandmother.

The resolution acknowledges Mrs. Bonner's contributions to her community and faith, particularly her involvement with the Ward Prairie Baptist Church, where she taught Sunday school and hosted pastors for Sunday dinners. The Texas House of Representatives expresses its condolences to her family and friends, including her son Buck, granddaughter Stella, and great-grandson Jonathan. The resolution was unanimously adopted by the House on August 27, 2025, and an official copy will be prepared for her family, with the House adjourning in her memory.
