A RESOLUTION


Commending Beverly Mize; and for other purposes.

WHEREAS, Beverly Mize has long been recognized by the citizens of this state for the vital role that she has played in leadership and her deep personal commitment to the welfare of the citizens of Georgia; and

WHEREAS, she has diligently and conscientiously devoted innumerable hours of her time, talents, and energy toward the betterment of her community and state as evidenced dramatically by her 20 years of superlative service as congressional staff with former United States Representative Ed Jenkins and most recently as a case worker for United States Representative Nathan Deal. Before she joined former Representative Jenkins' staff, she worked for 13 years with the American Red Cross, helping people in their time of need; and

WHEREAS, her significant organizational and leadership talents, her remarkable patience and diplomacy, her keen sense of vision, and her sensitivity to the needs of the citizens of this state have earned her the respect and admiration of her colleagues and associates; and

WHEREAS, she felt it was her calling to help people and answered this calling through superlative constituent service by working to solve problems with Social Security, the needs of veterans, passports, and immigration, among others. She is considered an expert on immigration issues, which made her an asset not only to Representative Deal, but to the people he represents; and

WHEREAS, Beverly Mize is a person of magnanimous strengths with an unimpeachable reputation for integrity, intelligence, fairness, and kindness; and

WHEREAS, it is abundantly fitting and proper that the outstanding accomplishments of this remarkable and distinguished Georgian be appropriately recognized.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES that the members of this body commend Beverly Mize for her two decades of efficient, effective, unselfish, and dedicated public service; congratulate her upon the grand occasion of her retirement; and extend to her their most sincere best wishes for continued health and happiness.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Clerk of the House of Representatives is authorized and directed to transmit an appropriate copy of this resolution to Beverly Mize.
