HR2084: HR2084 Branton, Mrs. Eloise; honoring the life and memory; condolences

This is a commemorative resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives, not a change to state law.

It also describes her decades of service at St. Peter Church. The resolution formally states that the House of Representatives honors her life and legacy and recognizes her contributions to her family, church, and community. It directs the Clerk of the House to prepare a copy of the resolution for distribution to her family. It does not create, amend, or repeal any Georgia statute.
