was born on May 17, 1944, and he grew up on the south side of San

four years of dedicated service; he then attended St. Mary's

Southwest Optimist Club and a founder of the National Hispanic

Institute; in his leisure time, he enjoyed listening to Tejano

music; and

cherished family; he shared a rewarding marriage of 52 years with

his wife, Gloria, and he was a devoted father to their three

daughters, Leticia, Victoria, and Gabriela; over the years, he

became a loving "Pipo" to eight grandchildren; and

WHEREAS, While the passing of Art Moreno brings great sadness

to his family and friends, he leaves behind a legacy that will long

be treasured by all those who held him dear; now, therefore, be it

RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 89th Texas
