H.R. No. 2813
R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, For nearly two decades, nurse practitioner Tim Flynn
has helped to ensure and maintain the good health of the public
officials and state employees who work in the Capitol Complex, and
he has continued this exemplary service through the Regular Session
of the 82nd Texas Legislature; and
WHEREAS, Each session, Mr. Flynn works in conjunction with a
doctor of the day, but all year round, during the session and
throughout the interim, he regularly provides expert medical
assistance to the steady stream of visitors to his Capitol office,
often saving patients a time-consuming and expensive visit to the
doctor's office or even the emergency room; and
WHEREAS, Mr. Flynn was born in St. Louis, Missouri, and he
earned a bachelor's degree in nursing from The University of Texas
at Austin; he began his tenure as Capitol nurse in 1992, and in 2002
he received his master's degree in nursing from UT with a perfect
4.0 grade point average and earned certification as an advanced
practice nurse, or nurse practitioner, which enabled him to offer a
wider range of care; and
WHEREAS, In recognition of his exceptional skill and
dedicated service, Mr. Flynn was honored with the Austin Advanced
Practice Nurses Alliance Award of Excellence in 2007; and
WHEREAS, Tim Flynn is universally regarded with respect and
affection for his skill, his compassion, and his cordial, welcoming
manner, and he is indeed deserving of the gratitude and friendship
of all who work at the Capitol; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 82nd Texas
Legislature hereby honor Tim Flynn for his outstanding service as
Capitol nurse practitioner and extend to him sincere best wishes
for continued success and happiness; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for Mr. Flynn as an expression of high regard by the Texas
House of Representatives.
