SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 281
WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to
recognize Lorne Greene Brodie Jr. of Boy Scout Troop 103 in
Mesquite for achieving the rank of Eagle Scout; this fine young
man joined the elite corps of Eagles recently and was presented
the coveted Eagle Badge at a Court of Honor; and
WHEREAS, Few achieve this distinguished honor; only a
small percentage of those who enter the Boy Scout program attain
the rank of Eagle Scout; and
WHEREAS, Following the principles of the Scout oath and
promise, Lorne advanced through the ranks of Tenderfoot, Second,
First, Star, and Life classes before reaching Eagle Scout; and
WHEREAS, This personable young man displayed leadership
through planning, developing, and conducting a service project
that benefited his community; his project involved conducting a
flag retirement ceremony for 300 flags on Flag Day in 2014 and
presenting the grommets from the retired flags to retired
military personnel and their families; he is truly a shining
example to his fellow Scouts and the young people of Texas; and
WHEREAS, By becoming an Eagle Scout, Lorne has brought
great honor to himself, his family, his troop, his community, and
his state; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 84th
Legislature, hereby commend Lorne Greene Brodie Jr. on receiving
this prestigious honor and congratulate him on his outstanding
achievement; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for
Eagle Scout Brodie as an expression of esteem from the Texas Senate.
