SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 25
In Memory
of
Colton Stults
WHEREAS, The tragic passing of Colton O'Neil Stults on
May 27, 2023, at the age of 17, has brought an incalculable loss
to all those who knew and loved him; and
WHEREAS, Born on November 30, 2005, Colton Stults was
cherished by his parents, Tim and Kendra Stults, and his younger
sister, Sarah, as well as by an extended family that included his
grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins; he was deeply devoted to
his loved ones, and he also drew great strength from his faith; and
WHEREAS, This exceptional young man had dreams of one day
becoming a physician at Arkansas Children's Hospital; an excellent
student, he earned a score of 33 on the ACT, which placed him in the
98th percentile of high school students nationwide; he was admired
for his humility and quiet confidence, and he made an impression on
everyone around him with his wonderful sense of humor, his
creativity, and his enthusiasm for life; and
WHEREAS, Although his passing leaves a tremendous void,
those fortunate enough to have known Colton Stults will forever
remember the joy and love that he brought into their lives; now,
therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 88th
Legislature, 1st Called Session, hereby pay tribute to the memory
of Colton O'Neil Stults and extend sincere sympathy to the
members of his family: to his parents, Tim and Kendra Stults; to
his sister, Sarah Kate Stults; to his grandparents, Bill and Gail
White and Martella Croft; to his aunts and uncles, Jeff and
Shellye White, Robin Stults, and Christina and Mark-Jon Nichols;
to his cousins, Emilye, Melodye, and Kaitye White; and to his
other relatives and friends; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this Resolution be
prepared for his family and that when the Texas Senate adjourns
this day, it do so in memory of Colton Stults.
