Bill > HR1039

This resolution pays tribute to Arthur Teneyuca "Art" Moreno, a dedicated public servant and community leader from Austin who passed away on March 30, 2025, at the age of 80. Born in San Antonio in 1944, Moreno served in the U.S. Navy, circumnavigating the globe three times, and later attended St. Mary's University, where he was actively involved in the Civil Rights Movement and voter registration advocacy. Throughout his career, he worked in human resources for multiple Texas gubernatorial administrations and state agencies, and was a founder of the National Hispanic Institute and a charter member of the Greater Southwest Optimist Club. The resolution highlights Moreno's commitment to his family, including his 52-year marriage to Gloria Mayo-Moreno and his role as a loving father to three daughters and grandfather to eight grandchildren. The Texas House of Representatives unanimously adopted this resolution to honor Moreno's life, extend condolences to his family, and memorialize his significant contributions to his community and state, ultimately directing that an official copy of the resolution be prepared for his family and that the House adjourn in his memory.
