R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Latwanna Clark and her daughter, Kay Clark, have
added to the richness and vitality of the Mesquite community by
opening their bakery, Kay's Cookiez; and
WHEREAS, Latwanna Clark, who had previously worked as a
hairdresser and family therapist, decided to transition to a job
that would allow her to spend more time with her young daughter;
inspired by Kay's fondness for cookies, the mother-daughter duo
began selling cookies and other treats in Atlanta, where they lived
at the time, and then at the Town East Mall in Mesquite; the success
of their kiosk led them to open a brick-and-mortar shop in March
2021; and
WHEREAS, Locally owned businesses make a welcome
contribution to the prosperity and distinct character of their
communities, and it is fitting that this notable enterprise be
recognized for the valued service it provides to area residents;
now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 87th Texas
Legislature hereby congratulate Latwanna and Kay Clark on the
opening of the Kay's Cookiez brick-and-mortar shop in Mesquite and
extend to them sincere best wishes for the future; and, be it
further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for the Clark family as an expression of high regard by the
Texas House of Representatives.
