This resolution pays tribute to Benjamin Cavazos, a respected civic leader from Mission, Texas, who passed away on March 8, 2025, at the age of 94. The resolution highlights Cavazos's significant contributions to his community, including co-founding Mission Auto Electric (later MAE Power Equipment), serving in the U.S. Army, and being actively involved in local organizations such as the Mission Chamber of Commerce, Kiwanis Club, and Saint Paul Catholic Church. The document recognizes his numerous achievements, including being named City of Mission Man of the Year in 1980 and Business Leader of the Year in 2019, and acknowledges his commitment to mentoring employees and supporting local businesses. The resolution extends sincere sympathy to his five children (Benjamin Lee, Joe Hector, Teresa, Martha Claudia, and Oscar Antonio), their spouses, 12 grandchildren, and 13 great-grandchildren, while also formally requesting an official copy of the resolution be prepared for his family and adjourning the Texas House of Representatives in his memory.
