Bill > HR15

This resolution pays tribute to the memory of John Louis Burgess IV, Julia Walsh Anderson Burgess, John Louis Burgess V, and James Littleton Burgess, who tragically died during the Hill Country floods on July 4, 2025, in Liberty, Texas. The resolution highlights John Burgess's professional journey as a chef, funeral director, and financial advisor, and Julia Burgess's 15-year career as an educator and coach. It details their personal lives, including their marriage in 2011, their three children (Jenna, Jack, and James), and their active involvement in their community through church, professional organizations, and volunteer work. The resolution extends deep sympathy to their extended family members, including their parents, siblings, and grandmother, and acknowledges the profound impact the family had on their community. As a final gesture of remembrance, the Texas House of Representatives resolves to prepare an official copy of the resolution for the family and adjourn the session in memory of John, Julia, Jack, and James Burgess, recognizing their lives as a blessing to those around them despite their tragically short time together.
