WHEREAS, The spouses, families and "significant others" of members of the Assembly often make sacrifices equal to or even greater than those made by the members themselves so that their loved ones can serve the people of the State of Nevada; and WHEREAS, These supportive persons often campaigned tirelessly before elections, sacrificing time, finances and privacy to help to improve this state; and WHEREAS, Frequently, they must bear the greater responsibility for child rearing, homemaking and income production while the members of the Assembly are serving during a legislative session; and WHEREAS, Many members of the Assembly must accept a reduction in pay while they serve and this often requires family members to make financial sacrifices; and WHEREAS, The spouses, families and "significant others" endure periods of loneliness and loss of companionship during a legislative session and often are forced to move or change jobs while members of the Assembly are serving this state; and WHEREAS, The majority of these persons have been or are currently involved in service to the state and their communities in their own right; and WHEREAS, They have constantly offered their support, love and loyalty to the members of the Assembly and they seldom have received the accolades and recognition they so richly deserved; now, therefore, be it RESOLVED BY THE ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF NEVADA, That the members of the 68th session of the Nevada Assembly extend their feelings of deepest love, highest honor and sincerest appreciation to their spouses, families and "significant others" who have given so much and requested so little, including, but not limited to, Cherryl Allard, Clyda Hooper Anderson, Carol Arberry, Sallie S.
