     WHEREAS, as a testament to true love, Mr. Roger Taylor and Mrs. Margaret Taylor celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary on January 28, 2021, a truly extraordinary occasion that signifies a lifetime of love and commitment to one another; and

     WHEREAS, true love struck when Mr. and Mrs. Taylor met, and they were united as one after exchanging the vows of holy matrimony on January 28, 1971, in Chicago, Illinois, and since the day they said "I do," their passionate, selfless love has rivaled the tender, boundless love described in great, romantic literary classics; and

     WHEREAS, after they married, Mr. and Mrs. Taylor began building their family, and to their union, six children were born, Helene Taylor, Roger Taylor, Richard Taylor, Freda Hurt, Amanda Taylor and Angela Benitez; and the two were further blessed with ten grandchildren, Richard Taylor, Destiny Taylor, Monica Ambrosio, Christopher Hurt, Hayleigh Hurt, Kara Taylor, Joshua Hurt, Alexis Ambrosio, Abigail Taylor and Margaret Benitez; and

     WHEREAS, throughout their marriage, Mr. and Mrs. Taylor have found a lasting and wonderful friendship and raised a family, all while growing closer together, and after 50 years of marital bliss, the two still enjoy spending time with one another and have been the proud owners of a successful business called "Ramjets" for over thirty years; and

     WHEREAS, with their love and adoration for one another,

Mr. and Mrs. Taylor inspire every couple that crosses their path to treat one another with respect, support each other's goals and ambitions, and, most importantly, to love 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. Taylor, who inspire their family and their community with their unceasing, enduring love and respect for one another after 50 years of marriage and bring 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 Mr. Roger Taylor and Mrs. Margaret Taylor upon the occasion of their 50th wedding anniversary, and express best wishes for continued success in all of their future endeavors.

     BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That copies of this resolution be furnished to Mr. Roger Taylor and Mrs. Margaret Taylor and to the members of the Capitol Press Corps.
