H.R. No. 114 is a resolution honoring the memory of Chloe Madeline Childress, an 18-year-old from Houston who tragically lost her life in the flooding in Kerr County on July 4, 2025. Born on October 3, 2006, Chloe was a dedicated student and leader at The Kinkaid School, where she excelled academically and participated in numerous extracurricular activities, including serving as co-president of the Honor Council and being involved in various clubs and sports. She was recognized for her artistic talents and had aspirations of becoming a doctor, having been accepted to The University of Texas at Austin to pursue a pre-med track.
The resolution expresses deep sorrow for her passing and extends heartfelt condolences to her family, including her parents, brother, grandparents, and friends. It highlights Chloe's inspiring spirit, her commitment to community service, and her role as a counselor at Camp Mystic, where she spent her final days caring for young campers. The Texas House of Representatives unanimously adopted the resolution, which serves as a tribute to Chloe's life and the impact she had on those around her. An official copy of the resolution will be prepared for her family, and the House will adjourn in her memory.
