En lenguaje claro
This resolution is a formal tribute from the Georgia Senate marking the death of Charles "Charlie" Kay Stevens on August 16, 2024. It recounts his life story: his birth in Florida in 1937, his service in the United States Army from 1956 to 1958 as an aerial photographer stationed in Japan, his move to Georgia in 1962 to open Lea's Drive Inn in Acworth, and his later ventures including The Corner Cafe in Dallas, Georgia. It also notes he earned a computer technology diploma at 55 and later drove a semi-truck across the country at 68. The resolution does not change any Georgia law. It simply states the Senate's condolences and directs the Secretary of the Senate to prepare a copy of the resolution for delivery to Stevens's family, including his wife and five children.
