H.R. No. 179
R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Family and friends will long cherish their memories
of Teresa de Jesus Flores Solis, who passed away on April 24, 2014,
at the age of 85; and
WHEREAS, Teresa Solis was born on October 15, 1928, and
raised in Laredo, where she attended Guadalupe Catholic School,
Christian Middle School, and Martin High School; an illness
prevented her from completing her studies, so she entered the
workforce early; and
WHEREAS, On November 7, 1951, she married Juan Manuel Solis;
the couple were blessed with 11 children, Juanita, Diana, Sylvia
Nora, Elia, Virginia, Manuel de Jesus, Javier, Juan Gerardo,
Adriana, Sandra, and Ruben; and
WHEREAS, After raising her children, Mrs. Solis returned to
school and received her GED from Laredo Community College at 53
years of age; she had a desire to help others, particularly young
people, so she went to work at a children's learning center with the
City of Laredo Community Development program in 1972; she retired
in 1992 in order to spend more time with her grandchildren and
great-grandchildren; and
WHEREAS, A loving wife and mother and a superb chef,
Mrs. Solis always had room for more loved ones around the table at
"Guela's house," as her grandchildren called it, and was
continually ready with a hot mug of atole or cafecito and sweets
such as capirotada and pan dulce; in addition, she loved to dance
and enjoyed attending weddings, quinceañeras, reunions, and other
parties; she is remembered as a woman of steady faith and great
strength, full of light and laughter and compassion for others; and
WHEREAS, Teresa de Jesus Flores Solis lived a caring and
purposeful life; she treasured the time she spent in the company of
family and friends, and she is deeply missed by all those who held
her dear; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 84th Texas
Legislature hereby honor the memory of Teresa de Jesus Flores Solis
and extend sincere sympathy to the members of her family: to her
children, Juanita Soliz and her husband, Joseph, Sylvia N. Brewster
and her husband, Sam, Elia Rios and her husband, Orlando, Manuel de
Jesus Solis and his wife, Martha, Javier Solis and his wife, Elena,
Juan Gerardo Solis, Adriana Degollado and her husband, Enrique,
Sandra Solis, and Ruben Solis and his wife, Marina; to her 25
grandchildren and 15 great-grandchildren; and to her many other
relatives and 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 Teresa de
Jesus Flores Solis.
