En lenguaje claro
This resolution is a formal tribute from the Georgia Senate marking the death of Norma Haynes, a longtime Newnan and Coweta County resident. It recounts her career, including becoming Coweta County's first female bailiff in 1980 and founding the Newnan Coweta Public Safety Foundation, a nonprofit that supported local first responders. It also notes her creation of the annual Public Safety Appreciation Lunch and her role in organizing Coweta County's part in the 1996 Olympic Torch Relay. The resolution states that the Senate honors her memory and expresses regret at her passing. It directs the Secretary of the Senate to provide a copy of the resolution to her family. The document has no regulatory or funding effect; it is a ceremonial statement rather than a change to Georgia law.
