Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor the remarkable life of Mrs. Jasmine Moran, an admirable Oklahoma Fifth District philanthropist. After surviving World War II in England, she uprooted her life to move to Seminole after meeting her husband, an oil man from Oklahoma. Inspired by a children's museum in Michigan, Mrs. Moran decided to start her own in Seminole in hopes of reigniting the city. Eventually, her idea came to life, and she created a world-class children's museum that attracts 70,000 visitors a year. But she didn't stop there. Almost single-handedly, Mrs. Moran created an animal shelter that adopts out 75 animals a month. Mrs. Moran's generosity, resilience, and commitment to the betterment of her community and everyone around her is truly inspiring. Though she will be deeply missed, there is no doubt that through her selfless endeavors, her legacy will live on forever. Mrs. Moran's story and the way she lived her life should stand as an inspiration to all Oklahomans. ____________________
