 In Memory
 of
 Fallen Health Care Workers
 WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas honors and
 commemorates the many Texans in the medical community who lost
 their lives in service as frontline workers during the COVID-19
 pandemic; and
 WHEREAS, Careers in health care require unwavering
 integrity, commitment, and compassion by those who choose to
 serve in the medical field, and those people make a positive
 difference in the lives of countless individuals; whether they
 serve as physicians, nurses, technicians, or administrators,
 these trusted care providers work each day to help heal the sick
 and hurting, and their exemplary service is an inspiration to
 Texans across the state; and
 WHEREAS, Hundreds of Texas families are mourning the loss
 of treasured loved ones who contracted the coronavirus while
 helping to protect their fellow citizens in service as COVID-19
 frontline workers; and
 WHEREAS, In addition to caring for the sick, many of our
 fallen health care providers gave generously of their time to
 charitable causes and community organizations; their civic
 contributions have helped improve lives and communities
 throughout the state; and
 WHEREAS, It is the responsibility of all Texans to honor
 the memory of those in the medical community whose lives were
 tragically lost to COVID-19 and to offer support to the families
 of those fallen heroes; now, therefore, be it
 RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 87th
 Legislature, hereby honor physicians and other members of the
 Texas medical community who died after selflessly serving on the
 front lines of the COVID-19 pandemic and extend sincere
 condolences to their families, friends, and loved ones; and, be
 it further
 RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for
 the families of our fallen health care workers.
