SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 439
WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to
recognize Norman Douglas Brown on the grand occasion of his 70th
birthday; and
WHEREAS, Over the course of his 70 years, he has seen many
momentous events and changes in the world; men have landed on the
moon, computers have become commonplace, and mobile telephones
are the rule rather than the exception; and
WHEREAS, Doug Brown was born March 27, 1941, in New York
City to Carol Joyce Brown and Norman Douglas Brown, Sr.; he moved
to Austin in 1958 to attend The University of Texas at Austin; and
WHEREAS, Doug married Judith Schas on December 20, 1968,
and the couple has formed a committed relationship built on love,
devotion, and mutual respect; and
WHEREAS, He takes great pride in his son, Timothy Douglas,
who has been a source of much joy, and his daughter and
son-in-law, Rosemary Louise and Monty Warren Wynn, who have
blessed him with two grandchildren, Aiden Douglas Wynn and Owen
Kenneth Wynn; and
WHEREAS, His entrepreneurial skills have found expression
in his business, Oat Willie's, which celebrated its 40th
anniversary in 2008; a respected and admired member of his
community, he is truly deserving of recognition as he passes this
birthday milestone; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 82nd
Legislature, hereby commend Norman Douglas Brown on his many
achievements and extend to him best wishes for a memorable 70th
birthday; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for
