SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 724
	WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to join
	the Senate Ladies Club in honoring those ladies who have been
	club members for 25 years or more; and
	WHEREAS, The Senate Ladies Club originated in 1927 as a
	social club for ladies who accompanied their husbands to Austin
	for the 40th Legislative Session; the club was organized to
	provide a means by which the ladies could become better
	acquainted with one another and introduce themselves to the
	Austin community; and
	WHEREAS, The club has a tradition of hosting a dinner the
	Monday preceding the opening of the legislative session to honor
	the governor and lieutenant governor and their spouses and the
	new members of the Senate and their spouses; the club meets
	frequently during the regular session; and
	WHEREAS, Active members are those women serving in the
	Senate and the wives of senators; associate members are women who
	are former senators or wives of former senators; and honorary
	members are the spouses of the current governor, lieutenant
	governor, and the attorney general; membership in the club is, in
	effect, a life membership--"Once a Senate Lady, always a Senate
	Lady"; and
	WHEREAS, Ginny Turner joined the Senate Ladies Club in 1991
	and is being honored this year for her 26 years of loyal
	membership and outstanding service; now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 85th
	Legislature, hereby pay special tribute to this distinguished
	lady and commend her for her accomplishments and contributions to
	our state; and, be it further
	RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for her
	as an expression of high regard from the Texas Senate.
