SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 711
In Memory
of
Harrison Brown
WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas joins the
citizens of Graham in mourning the loss of Harrison Brown, who
died May 1, 2017; and
WHEREAS, Harrison Brown was an exemplary young man whose
many achievements and great potential were an inspiration to all
those who were privileged to share in his life; and
WHEREAS, Harrison was a 2016 graduate of Graham High School,
where he ran cross country, participated in one-act play, and
played trumpet in the Rompin' Stompin' Big Blue Band; he was voted
by his fellow students as class favorite, and the school's faculty
named him Mr. GHS, the school's most outstanding student; and
WHEREAS, He was a source of pride and joy for his parents,
Kurt and Lori Brown, and a source of strength and comfort for his
brother, John; and
WHEREAS, The death of one so young is a great tragedy, for
in the faces of the young we see the hope and promise of our
future; Harrison's unique spirit, and the joy he brought to
others, will continue to live well beyond his life; and
WHEREAS, A devoted son and loving brother, he gave
unselfishly to others, and his generous spirit, his boundless
energy, and his enthusiasm for living each day to the fullest
will not be forgotten by his family and countless friends; now,
therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 85th
Legislature, hereby extend sincere condolences to the bereaved
family of Harrison Brown; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for
his family as an expression of deepest sympathy from the Texas
Senate and that when the Senate adjourns this day, it do so in
memory of Harrison Brown.
