En lenguaje claro
This is a memorial resolution passed by the Georgia Senate to recognize the life of Mary Sprayberry Hatcher Boggs, who died on January 20, 2026. The resolution recounts her biography: her birth in Delta, Alabama in 1935, her 42 year teaching career in the Jefferson County Public School System in Alabama, her work founding a Pre-K program at First Methodist Church of Villa Rica, and her 40 years of service as a minister's wife. The Senate resolves to join in honoring her life and memory and to express its sincere regret at her passing. It also directs the Secretary of the Senate to prepare a copy of the resolution for distribution to her family. The resolution does not change any Georgia law; it is a ceremonial statement of condolence.
