55 WHEREAS, Family and friends are mourning the loss of Carlos
66 Garcia, Sr., of Hondo, who died on March 21, 2009, at the age of 82;
77 and
88 WHEREAS, Mr. Garcia was born on October 9, 1926; he answered
99 his nation's call to arms as a young man and served a tour of duty in
1010 World War II; and
1111 WHEREAS, He married Magdalena Gonzales on December 4, 1943,
1212 and together he and his wife raised eight sons, Carlos, Robert,
1313 Arnulfo, Adolfo, Richard, Simon, Daniel, and the late Louis Roy
1414 Garcia; and
1515 WHEREAS, In 1953, Mr. Garcia led efforts in Hondo to
1616 desegregate the public school system so that his sons would be
1717 afforded the same opportunities that other students received; at
1818 that time, students of Mexican American descent were enrolled at a
1919 separate facility known as the West End School; and
2020 WHEREAS, In order to end this form of discrimination, Mr.
2121 Garcia helped to bring the American GI Forum to Hondo, and it was
2222 through the GI Forum that he and four of his friends filed a lawsuit
2323 against Hondo public schools for segregating its students; and
2424 WHEREAS, In early 1953, Mr. Garcia and his colleagues
2525 traveled to Austin to make their voices heard, and their efforts
2626 were rewarded that fall, when Hondo schools were ordered to
2727 integrate; and
2828 WHEREAS, Because he fought for fairness, Mr. Garcia's
2929 grandchildren have attended such notable schools as Sul Ross State
3030 University, The University of Texas at San Antonio, Oral Roberts
3131 University, Texas A&M University, Tarleton State University, Texas
3232 Tech University, and The University of Texas; and
3333 WHEREAS, Carlos Garcia was a loving father and husband who
3434 stood up for equal rights for all; his efforts made a difference,
3535 not only for his children, but also for all succeeding generations,
3636 and his life was an inspiring example of the good that one person
3737 can accomplish; now, therefore, be it
3838 RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 81st Texas
3939 Legislature hereby pay tribute to the life of Carlos Garcia, Sr.,
4040 and extend sincere condolences to the members of his family: to his
4141 wife, Magdalena; to his sons; and to his other relatives and
4242 friends; and, be it further
4343 RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
4444 prepared for his family and that when the Texas House of
4545 Representatives adjourns this day, it do so in memory of Carlos
4646 Garcia, Sr.
