House Resolution 1764 is a commemorative resolution honoring Mrs. Dora Mae Tiller of Georgia on the occasion of her 100th birthday. The resolution recites her life story, including her birth in Gay, Georgia, her long career in home care nursing, her care for children and others, her retirement, and her extensive travel, noting that she has visited every state except Alaska and many countries around the world.
The measure formally commends Mrs. Tiller for her unselfish, dedicated, and loving service to her family and community, congratulates her on reaching this milestone birthday, and extends best wishes for continued health and happiness. It also directs the Clerk of the House to provide an appropriate copy of the resolution to her. The resolution does not amend state law, create new legal duties, or affect any statutes or regulated parties; it is purely honorary and ceremonial.
