En lenguaje claro
This House resolution is a ceremonial honor rather than a change to Georgia law. It recognizes Richard Storer, a 92-year-old clock maker and repairman from Hampton, Georgia, who learned the craft while serving in the United States Navy from 1952 to 1974. The resolution describes his 62 years of work repairing clocks, including one built in 1737, and his current work displayed at a jewelry shop in McDonough. The resolution notes that Storer once ran a shop in Jonesboro and now works from his home attic, and that he mentors a weekly group of men learning clock repair. The House formally commends him and wishes him continued health and happiness, and directs the Clerk of the House to provide him a copy of the resolution.
