SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 1010
WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is proud to pay
tribute to one of its most beloved longtime employees, Susan
Tyler, who is retiring after 35 and one-half years of dedicated
service to the Senate and 38 years of service with the state; and
WHEREAS, Susan first joined the Texas Senate in 1974, and
she became director of Senate Payroll in 1996; throughout her
tenure, she has served the Senate with distinction and the utmost
loyalty and dedication; and
WHEREAS, Noted for her congenial personality and generous
spirit, she has consistently handled with patience and aplomb the
many questions that come from staff and the various issues that
confront a payroll officer; as manager of the monthly payroll and
a coordinator of special Senate programs, she has carried out her
duties with remarkable accuracy and attention to detail; in
recognition of the significant attributes she has brought to her
position, she was selected as the 2007 administrative recipient
of the Betty King Public Service Award; and
WHEREAS, While known for embracing her Senate
responsibilities with quintessential professionalism, she is
also noted for her exemplary volunteerism outside of the
workplace; Susan has served with great commitment as a volunteer
with Meals on Wheels and has given generously of her time to
assist patients who suffer with Alzheimer's disease; and
WHEREAS, Highly regarded for her proficiency as the
director of Payroll, she is also a favorite among all who walk the
Capitol halls and who know her as a witty, warm-hearted person
who cultivates many interests and derives enjoyment from life's
smallest gifts; she is a bird-watcher, a genealogist, and an avid
traveler, and she is one who masterfully succeeds at whatever
endeavor she chooses to pursue, no matter the challenges it
presents; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 83rd
Legislature, hereby commend Susan Tyler on her exceptional
service to the Texas Senate and extend appreciation to her for
her longtime loyalty and many years of outstanding work on the
Senate's behalf; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared in
honor of Susan Tyler and as an expression of esteem from the Texas
Senate.
