R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Countless lives were touched by the kindness and
generosity of Sharon Elaine Wright of Plano, who passed away on June
14, 2011; and
WHEREAS, A longtime City of Plano employee, Mrs. Wright began
her tenure there with the utility billing department in July 1987;
she distinguished herself in several positions through the years,
earning respect and admiration for her writing skills, her positive

retirement in January 2010, she was a valued member of the city
manager group, serving as the executive administrative assistant to
the mayor and council; and

compassion, and joy; she took great pleasure in gardening and yard
work, and she was a talented crafter who won first place for a
wreath she entered in a State Fair of Texas creative arts contest;
moreover, she had a knack for decorating that often led to others
seeking her advice or assistance; and
WHEREAS, Above all, Mrs. Wright was devoted to her family,
especially delighting in her role as grandmother, or "Nana," to DJ,
Logan, Connor, and Avery, whose company she especially treasured;
and
WHEREAS, Although Sharon Wright is deeply missed, memories of
this beloved woman remain to comfort and inspire all those who had
the good fortune to know her; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 82nd Texas
Legislature, 1st Called Session, hereby pay tribute to the life of

Colin Wright; to her grandchildren, DJ Starr and Logan, Connor, and
Avery Wright; to her sister, Doris Johnson, and her husband, Jim;
and to her other relatives and many friends; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for her family and that when the Texas House of
Representatives adjourns this day, it do so in memory of Sharon
Elaine Wright.
