R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, The untimely passing of James Moulton Eastland of
Hunt on March 16, 2015, at the age of 34, has brought a tremendous
loss to the family and friends of this beloved Texan; and
WHEREAS, Born on February 16, 1981, to Dick and Tweety
Eastland, James Eastland graduated from Tivy High School in
Kerrville, where he played on the football and soccer teams; he
received a degree in mechanical engineering from The University of
Texas at Austin, and while there, he met his future wife, Lindsay; a
caring husband and father, he cherished his family above all else,
and he took great pride in his two daughters, Caroline and Anna; and
WHEREAS, In 2004, Mr. Eastland went to work for Camp Mystic,
a 725-acre Christian summer camp for girls that has been in the
Eastland family since 1939; for a decade, he served the operation as
vice president, and his many responsibilities included managing the
camp's website, promoting the facility, assisting with finances,
and teaching a fishing class for the campers; he endeared himself to
his young charges and to the counselors in his employ through his
concern for their well-being, and he believed strongly in the
camp's mission of nurturing the personal and spiritual growth of
young women; and
WHEREAS, Mr. Eastland was a member of the congregation at
First United Methodist Church, and he was also active in the
Kerrville Area Chamber of Commerce, where he endeavored to support
the economic prosperity of the city; furthermore, he was involved
with the Eagle's Nest mentoring program at Hunt Elementary School,
and in recognition of his myriad efforts to assist students, the
James Eastland Mentoring Scholarship has been established in his
memory by the Hunt Independent School District; and
WHEREAS, Although no words can diminish the pain caused by a
life cut short, the friends and loved ones of James Eastland are
richer for having known him, and they will forever find joy in their
memories of time spent in his company; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 84th Texas
Legislature hereby pay tribute to the life of James Moulton
Eastland and extend deepest condolences to the members of his
family: to his wife, Lindsay Eastland; to his daughters, Caroline
and Anna Eastland; to his parents, Dick and Tweety Eastland; to his
brothers, Richard Eastland and his wife, Leslie, Britt Eastland and
his wife, Catie, and Edward Eastland and his wife, Mary Liz; and to
his other relatives and friends; 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 James
Eastland.
