Expressing

WHEREAS,
on January 11, 2005, the State of Georgia lost one of its finest and most
distinguished citizens with the passing of Ruth Joan Miller; and
WHEREAS,
she was a woman of deep and abiding faith who was a Sunday school teacher, an
active member of Smithville Baptist Church, and pre-K paraprofessional at
Cherokee Elementary School; and
WHEREAS,
she was a proud and shining example of enduring love and affection and saw her
progeny grow and flourish over a span of two descending generations through the
lives of her four children and her eight grandchildren; and
WHEREAS,
the devotion, patience, and understanding she demonstrated provided the
foundation and framework of success in which all of her family members have
developed and flourished; and
WHEREAS,
this distinguished senior gentlewoman gave inspiration to many through her high
ideals, morals, and deep concern for her fellow citizens and she possessed the
vast wisdom which only comes through experience and the strength of character
which is achieved through overcoming the many challenges of life;
and
WHEREAS,
she was a person of magnanimous strengths with an unimpeachable reputation for
integrity, intelligence, fairness, and kindness and, by the example she made of
her life, she made this world a better place in which to live.
