14 | 14 | | WHEREAS, Over the course of over 33 years in banking, Annie |

30 | 30 | | work in an environment where women feel valued for their individual |

31 | 31 | | traits, skills and talents"; now, therefore, be it |
---|

---|
33 | 33 | | Texas, 84th Legislature, hereby commend Annie Uribe Turner for her |
