SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 765
WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to
recognize Frenchy and Teri Rheault for their many contributions
to the Denton community; and
WHEREAS, Frenchy and Teri Rheault are the owners of
Frenchy's Lawn and Tree Service; since opening the business 28
years ago, they have more than lived up to the company's slogan,
"We don't just mow lawns, we take care of people"; and
WHEREAS, They support a wide range of causes and
organizations by serving on boards, providing free landscaping
services to nonprofit organizations, and parking one of their
company's unique orange vans outside of fund-raising events to
encourage participation; the many organizations that have
benefited from their largesse and hard work include Friends of
the Family, Hearts for Homes, Fred Moore Day Nursery School,
Interfaith Ministries, and United Way of Denton County; and
WHEREAS, A retired United States Air Force master sergeant
and Vietnam veteran, Frenchy is noted for his undying patriotism
and his support of the nation's armed forces; his company's
well-known vans are often seen displaying American flags, and his
support for such organizations as the Veterans of Foreign Wars,
the Vietnam Veterans of America, and the Honor Flight Network is
an inspiration to all who know him; and
WHEREAS, Frenchy and Teri are also passionate advocates
for people with disabilities, and they have donated motorized
wheelchairs to disabled veterans and encouraged wheelchair
accessibility at local businesses; they have had a positive
impact on the lives of countless Denton citizens, and it is
truly fitting that they receive special recognition; now,
therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 85th
Legislature, hereby commend Frenchy and Teri Rheault on their
commitment to community service and extend to them best wishes
for continued success in all their endeavors; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for
this distinguished couple as an expression of esteem from the
Texas Senate.
Estes, Nelson
