|
children, Shawn Marceaux and Julie Marceaux Latson, by loving, |
 
|
generous example; a doting father, Brent eagerly attended his |

|
gatherings and community fund-raisers and benefits; and |
 
|
             WHEREAS, Brent also served the community in a number of |
 
|
civic leadership roles; he was a city councilman in Bay City, and |
 
|
he served on the boards of the Bay City Independent School |
 
|
District and the Holy Cross School; he was also a member of the |
 
|
Vestry of Saint Mark's Episcopal Church and a lifelong supporter |
 
|
of local sports organizations; and |
 
|
             WHEREAS, A kind and gregarious gentleman, Brent Marceaux |
 
|
never met a stranger, and he always made sure his cherished |
 
|
friends and loved ones knew how much they meant to him; he was |
 
|
beloved by many, and he leaves behind memories that will long be |
 
|
treasured by all who were privileged to share in his life; now, |
 
|
therefore, be it |
 
|
             RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 87th |
 
|
