It recognizes the life of Jacob Lloye Davis, Jr., who was born in Pierce County, Georgia in 1921, served in the United States Navy aboard the U.S.S. Intrepid during World War II, and later farmed for most of his life before starting a pecan orchard. The resolution recounts his family life, his membership in Beulah Baptist Church, and his agricultural honors, including a 1974 Farmer of the Year award. The House formally expresses its regret at his passing and directs the Clerk of the House to send a copy of the resolution to his family.
