WHEREAS, Lehi Tonga was recognized for his outstanding
academic achievements at the Awards of Excellence Dinner hosted by
the Hurst-Euless-Bedford Education Foundation on March 12, 2009;
and
WHEREAS, This annual event pays tribute to exemplary high
school seniors in the Hurst-Euless-Bedford Independent School

provides to public education; local business and civic leaders
sponsor each of the honorees, and each student, in turn,
acknowledges a faculty mentor who has been instrumental in the
student's endeavors; and
WHEREAS, A member of the Class of 2009 at L. D. Bell High
School, Lehi Tonga received an Award of Excellence that
acknowledged his work in physical education and athletics, and he
was presented with a medal that will serve as an enduring symbol of
his accomplishments; and
WHEREAS, By demonstrating admirable determination and by
taking full advantage of the caring support provided by his
school's educators, Lehi Tonga has built a strong foundation for
future success, and he may take justifiable pride in a job well done
as he looks forward to the challenges and opportunities that lie
ahead; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 81st Texas
Legislature hereby congratulate Lehi Tonga on his receipt of a 2009
Award of Excellence from the Hurst-Euless-Bedford Education
Foundation and extend to him sincere best wishes for continued
achievement; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for Mr. Tonga as an expression of high regard by the Texas
