the loss of Christina Susanne Lane of Corpus Christi, who died on
April 9, 2017, at the age of 34; and
WHEREAS, Christina Lane was born in Corpus Christi on October
14, 1982, to Paula Davis Clark and Richard Scott Lane, and she grew
up on Padre Island, where she learned to love the outdoor life; when
she was 11, her family moved to Bastrop, and she was an active
member of the United Methodist Youth Fellowship at First United
Methodist Church; she graduated from Bastrop High School in 2001;
and

kinesiology and business at Texas A&M University--Corpus Christi,

Villarreal, and the couple were married in November 2014; and
WHEREAS, In her roles as a teacher and as the head varsity
coach for girls' softball at West Oso High School, Ms. Lane was an
inspiring mentor, and she tried to instill in her players not only a
love of the game but also integrity and self-confidence; she was
also a licensed fishing captain and guide and the owner of Sea Lane
Outdoors, and she enjoyed participating in fishing tournaments; and

bright spirit will live on in the hearts of all those who knew and
loved her; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 85th Texas
