(As Adopted by House)
A RESOLUTION COMMENDING AND CONGRATULATING LINDA JEAN AND PAUL MORGAN ROWAN UPON THE OCCASION OF THEIR 60TH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY.
WHEREAS, on March 16, 2017, Linda Jean and Paul Morgan Rowan celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary, a truly momentous anniversary that signifies a lifetime of love and commitment to one another; and
WHEREAS, Linda Jean and Paul Morgan became Mr. and Mrs. Rowan after exchanging the vows of holy matrimony before God and a host of family and friends on March 16, 1957, and since the day they said, "I do," the precious, selfless love shared between the two soul mates has only been rivaled by the tender, boundless love they share for their Lord and Savior Jesus Christ; and
WHEREAS, from this union made in Heaven, God blessed them with two exceptional children, Paul Jr., and Teresa; and
WHEREAS, throughout their marriage, Linda and Paul have prayed diligently for one another and for their children on a daily basis; and
WHEREAS, Linda and Paul have experienced heartache, yet learned to trust God through the pain, laughed together and at one another, and ultimately grown closer together, and their love and adoration for God and for one another inspire every couple that crosses their affectionate path to honor their spouse and treat their partner with respect, support each other's goals and ambitions and most importantly, to love as Jesus loves, unconditionally; and
WHEREAS, it is the policy of the House of Representatives to recognize and celebrate the marital relationships of fine Mississippians, especially those such as Mr. and Mrs. Rowan, who continue to inspire their community with their unceasing, enduring love and respect for one another after 60 years of marriage and bringing honor to the great State of Mississippi:
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE STATE OF MISSISSIPPI, That we do hereby commend and congratulate Linda Jean and Paul Morgan Rowan upon the occasion of their 60th wedding anniversary and express best wishes in all of their future endeavors.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That copies of this resolution be furnished to Linda Jean and Paul Morgan Rowan and to the members of the Capitol Press Corps.
