| Texan finally retired at the age of 88; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Mr. Wilson shared a rewarding marriage with his | ||
| wife, Joyce, until her passing in 2010 and took pride in his | ||

| include three more generations; he worshipped at Miller Heights | ||
| Baptist Church and enjoyed hunting for many years; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Billy Ed Wilson treasured the time he spent in the | ||
| company of his family and friends, and those he leaves behind will | ||
| in turn cherish their memories of their time spent with him; now, | ||
| therefore, be it | ||
| RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 83rd Texas | ||
