WHEREAS, June 18, 2017, marks the 40th wedding anniversary of
Jeffrey and Marianne Johanns of Austin, and this joyous event
provides a fitting opportunity to reflect on their rewarding
journey together as husband and wife; and
WHEREAS, After several years of courtship that began while
they were still in high school, Mr. and Mrs. Johanns exchanged the
vows of matrimony at Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Farmer City,
Illinois, in 1977; over the course of their marriage, they have been
blessed with a treasured family that includes their children,
Katherine and Alex; and

Mr. Johanns retired from PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP in 2011 and
currently serves as a lecturer for The University of Texas at Austin
McCombs School of Business, and Mrs. Johanns has devoted herself to
her home and family throughout their marriage, in addition to
volunteering at her children's schools; this admirable couple also
established a scholarship at the University of Illinois,
Mr. Johanns's alma mater, and they have supported such worthy
causes as the Rescue Mission of El Paso and Alley Cat Allies; and
WHEREAS, The 40 years of marriage that Mr. and Mrs. Johanns
have shared is eloquent affirmation of the meaning of love and
commitment, and their enduring union is an inspiration to all who
know them; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 85th Texas
Legislature hereby congratulate Jeffrey and Marianne Johanns on
their 40th wedding anniversary and extend to them sincere best
wishes for continued happiness; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for the couple as an expression of high regard by the Texas
House of Representatives.
