This is a commendation resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives honoring Morris Roberts, a musician from Tennille, Georgia.

It formally resolves that the House recognizes and commends him, and directs the Clerk of the House to prepare a copy of the resolution for distribution to him. The resolution does not change any Georgia law.
