Carson City (Thursday), June 26, 1997

Assembly called to order at 11:15 a.m.
Mr. Speaker presiding.
Roll called.
All present.
Prayer by Cleric Michael Berg, Eckankar.
In the Name of the Creator. We are gathered here today in the solemn hall of the Assembly to transact the important business of this state. We invite God's grace into our deliberations and seek that place within each of us that contains pure and unlimited wisdom and love. By keeping our attention on a higher source, we turn our actions, thoughts and life over to the Divine Spirit. In ECKANKAR, to show our gratitude to God, we have the word "HU", a most beautiful prayer. HU is an ancient name for God, it is a love song to God. It does not direct God to do anything, but rather says, "Thy will be done." You may close your eyes, if you wish, and silently sing the "HU" or you may pick a word that you like, that is sacred to you and fills your heart with love, or put your attention on your own spiritual guide. This becomes a non-directed prayer, which means that we are willing to let the Holy Spirit take care of the affairs in our life according to the Divine Plan. We will now have a moment of silence. We thank You, God, for Your guidance this day. May the Blessing Be.

Amen.

Pledge of allegiance to the Flag.

Mary Jo Mongelli

Assistant Secretary of the Senate

Justice Mowbray's activities with the Boy Scouts of America are indeed legendary. He was the first chief justice to be recognized by the National Association of Christians and Jews. In addition, he was the first Nevada Supreme Court justice to receive the Equal Justice Award for the Western States.
Justice Mowbray also authored works such as "How Can I Stay Out of Legal Trouble?" with the Rocky Mountain Medical Journal.
This resolution is a small token of appreciation to a man who has left a lasting mark upon our state, and I urge your support.
Assemblyman Goldwater:
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I rise in support of SCR 58. Justice Mowbray was a good friend of my family. Those of you who have met my father know that he has probably grown into one of the world's biggest cynics. He doesn't think much of anybody these days.
Around the time I first became involved in politics, my father and I ran into Justice Mowbray. My father introduced me to him, shook his hand, and he walked away. My dad looked at me and said, "That is a great man." That's what he said, "That is a great man." Impressionable young guy that I was, and still at times am, that observation meant a lot. From that point on, whenever I ran into Justice Mowbray, my dad's remark came to mind. It meant a lot to me, and Justice Mowbray must have been a great man in order to make that kind of impression on people. I think the term "role model" is mentioned in the resolution. I think it is appropriate, and I encourage my colleagues to support this resolution.
Assemblyman Humke:
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I rise in support of SCR 58. I know the hour is late. I don't wish to make extensive remarks, but I must second the remarks of the two previous speakers.
I'd like to share a brief anecdote. Justice Mowbray attended some proceedings at the law school I attended, and I would attest to the fact that he was a very kind individual, very concerned with individual persons, individual law students, and Nevadans. He was concerned about their lives, hopes, and ambitions, and he demonstrated genuine interest. I think the resolution describes Justice Mowbray's many and outstanding accomplishments, and it is a richly deserved honor to bestow upon him by this Assembly.
Assemblyman Price:
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. To you and through you to this honorable body. I am pleased and honored to rise in support of SCR 58 and saddened by the fact that John is not here with us to receive it. I knew John for a number of years, but we probably became most closely associated when we served together on the Bicentennial Commission. Everyone who knew John recognized that he possessed a brilliant legal mind and that he was a patriotic gentleman--proud to be an American and a Nevadan. Over the time that John and I served together, I grew, for lack of a better term, to love and appreciate him more than ever.
John felt that it would be good for Nevada to have what we generally refer to as a "commission on democracy." He felt that our state and local governments would benefit by having a commission which would continually educate citizens and strive to get more citizens involved in government. I am pleased today to tell you that while we were on our break, I learned that SB 429, which is an extension and outgrowth of that effort, passed the Senate today and is headed our way. I hope that we will be able to pass that legislation and that SB 429 will go down in our books as a legacy to John.
I would urge all my colleagues to support this resolution.
Assemblywoman Buckley:
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. As one of the many new lawyers practicing in Nevada and entering public service, I am fortunate to have had John Mowbray "blaze the trails," both in law and public service. His honesty, intellect, integrity, and compassion for all, especially those less fortunate, will remain with all of us and will continue to inspire us.
Assemblyman Anderson:
On behalf of the Assembly, it is my honor to present this resolution to Kathlyn Mowbray, Justice Mowbray's wife, and to express to her our sincere condolences. In addition, I wish to introduce to you Romy Mowbray, Terry Mowbray, John Mowbray and Jerry Mowbray, the family of Justice Mowbray.
I forgot to add one really important line, and I should have remembered it, because after all, it was one of the justice's very favorite lines: "Home means Nevada."
Resolution adopted.
