H.R. No. 178
R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Words cannot adequately express the sorrow felt at
the loss of Brennley Jean Abbott of Corpus Christi, who passed away
on December 20, 2022, at the age of eight months; and
WHEREAS, The daughter of Kellen and Jennifer Abbott, Brennley
Abbott was born on April 13, 2022; and
WHEREAS, Brennley was a vocal, happy baby who loved to bask in
the attention of her doting parents and adoring older brothers,
Greyson and Jackson; she spent many contented hours with her large
extended family and enjoyed playing with her little cousins; and
WHEREAS, Fascinated by the people around her, Brennley often
fixed them with an intense stare, only to break into a huge smile;
she could make her wishes known with a mighty yell that belied her
tiny size; her bubbly personality brightened her brothers' ball
games and family trips to zoos, parks, and other destinations; and
WHEREAS, Brennley Abbott brought out the best in everyone
around her, and although her days were far too few, she will forever
hold a treasured place in the hearts of all who were fortunate
enough to know her; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 88th Texas
Legislature hereby pay tribute to the memory of Brennley Jean
Abbott and extend deepest condolences to the members of her family:
to her parents, Kellen and Jennifer Abbott; to her brothers,
Jackson and Greyson; to her paternal grandmother, Kathy Abbott; to
her maternal grandparents, Carlos Amador and his wife, Gloria, and
Connie Amador and her husband, Leonel Cantu; to her maternal
great-grandmother, Sara Gonzales; to her aunts and uncles, Michelle
Paiz and her husband, Miguel, Carley Amador, Charles Abbott and his
wife, Amelia, Bobby Abbott and his wife, Denise, Loraine Martinez
and her husband, Tito, and Tamara Gatlin; and to her many other
relatives and friends; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for her family and that when the Texas House of
Representatives adjourns this day, it do so in memory of Brennley
Abbott.
