H.R. No. 2020
R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Family and friends will forever cherish their
memories of Roberto Trevino, who passed away on March 29, 2021, at
the age of 89, and of his wife, Hermidia Trevino, who passed away on
April 5, 2021, at the age of 87; and
WHEREAS, Born on September 5, 1931, Roberto Trevino was the
son of Bruno and Nicasia Trevino; after graduating from Falfurrias
High School, he enlisted in the United States Air Force, and while
in the military, he played football and baseball, which led to him
traveling to compete at bases around the world; he continued his
football career at Texas A&I University, where he was a member of
the 1959 championship team; and
WHEREAS, The former Hermidia Garcia, who was affectionately
known as "Mamie," was born on April 8, 1933, to Alberto and
Manuelita Garcia; she graduated from Kingsville High School and
subsequently studied at Baptist Nursing School in San Antonio to
become a registered nurse; she first worked as an emergency room
nurse at Kleberg County Hospital, before becoming a school nurse;
she met the love of her life, Roberto Trevino, while continuing her
studies at Texas A&I University, where she earned a bachelor's
degree and two master's degrees; and
WHEREAS, Mr. and Mrs. Trevino enjoyed more than six decades
of marriage; through their careers as educators, they touched the
lives of countless students, many of whom returned later in life to
thank the couple for the support and encouragement they provided
them; both husband and wife also shared a strong religious faith
that led them to serve their congregation at St. Martin's Parish,
where Mr. Trevino was a 30-year member of the choir and
Mrs. Trevino was a Eucharistic minister; and
WHEREAS, Deeply devoted to their family, Mr. and
Mrs. Trevino were the loving parents of three children, Bobby,
Emmy, and J. E., and they were further blessed with seven
grandchildren, Robert Michael, Estevan, Michaela, Maya, Benjamin,
Timothy, and Marcello, and two great-granddaughters, Isabella and
Violetta; and
WHEREAS, Roberto and Hermidia Trevino set an inspiring
example through their passion for teaching, through the rewarding
family life they built, and through their commitment to one
another, and they will always hold a treasured place in the hearts
of those they leave behind; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 87th Texas
Legislature hereby pay tribute to the memory of Roberto and
Hermidia Trevino and extend sincere condolences to their family and
friends; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for their family and that when the Texas House of
Representatives adjourns this day, it do so in memory of Roberto and
Hermidia Trevino.
