WHEREAS, Citizens from across the Lone Star State are
gathering at the State Capitol on May 4, 2015, for the Peace
Officers' Memorial Ceremony, held in honor of those brave men and
women who have lost their lives in the line of duty; and
WHEREAS, Texans everywhere are indebted to members of the law
enforcement profession who, by their selfless devotion to the
public welfare, have enabled us to enjoy the benefits of a peaceful
and orderly society; and
WHEREAS, Too seldom recognized and sometimes taken for
granted by the public they so faithfully serve, these intrepid
individuals daily risk their lives in order to preserve domestic
tranquility and to protect their fellow residents; and
WHEREAS, Border Patrol Agent Tyler R. Robledo of the U.S.
Department of Homeland Security, Customs and Border Protection,
earned the respect and admiration of his peers for his commitment to
serving the greater good, and his contributions will not soon be
forgotten; and
WHEREAS, Throughout his tenure, which spanned three years,
Border Patrol Agent Robledo demonstrated the loyalty, courage, and
self-sacrifice that are consistent with the highest ideals of the
law enforcement profession; and
WHEREAS, Killed in the line of duty on Friday, September 12,
2014, at the age of 34, Border Patrol Agent Robledo will long be
missed by his family, his fellow peace officers, and the entire
community; and
WHEREAS, Though his life ended far too soon, Border Patrol
Agent Robledo left behind a notable legacy that will forever be
honored by those who follow in this difficult but essential
profession; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 84th Texas
Legislature hereby pay tribute to the life of Border Patrol Agent

Customs and Border Protection, and extend deepest sympathy to his
relatives, friends, and fellow officers; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for his family and that when the Texas House of
Representatives adjourns this day, it do so in memory of Border
Patrol Agent Tyler R. Robledo.
