SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 813
In Memory
of
Monty Graham Goff
WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas honors and
commemorates the life of Monty Graham Goff, who died on
November 2, 2011, at the age of 62; and
WHEREAS, Born July 10, 1949, to Percy Martin Goff and
Frieda Barlemann Graham Goff, Monty was an individual to whom
others naturally gravitated; his many friends, colleagues, and
family members recall that he never met a person he could not
befriend, a fish he could not catch, a task he could not manage,
or a song to which he could not dance; he was one who filled his
life with purpose and with passion; and
WHEREAS, In professional circles, Monty was much revered
as the accomplished director of planning and business services
at Texas Property and Casualty Insurance Guaranty Association;
he also worked as a planner with the City of Austin and he
played a vital role in the development of the Austin Convention
Center; and
WHEREAS, A devoted father and husband, he deeply enjoyed
spending time with his family; he also dedicated himself to
working with the Anderson Community Development Corporation and
served as a mentor to others; and
WHEREAS, This generous and inspiring Texan left an
indelible mark on the hearts of all who loved him; he will long be
remembered with affection and admiration by those who were
privileged to share in his life, and his memory will forever be
cherished by his wife, Vicki, his daughter, Kate, his sister,
Marty, and his other beloved relatives and friends; now,
therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 83rd
Legislature, hereby extend sincere condolences to the bereaved
family of Monty Graham Goff; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for
his family as an expression of deepest sympathy from the Texas
Senate, and that when the Senate adjourns this day, it do so in
memory of Monty Goff.
