Memorials, Recognition - Billy Gene and Doris Jean Skinner Beckham -

This bill is a House Joint Resolution that formally honors the memory of Billy Gene and Doris Jean Skinner Beckham, a married couple from Clifton, Tennessee. The resolution recognizes their lifelong contributions to their community, including Bill Beckham's service in the U.S. Navy during World War II, his leadership as mayor of Clifton, and Doris Skinner's operation of a local five-and-dime store that served as a community gathering place. The bill does not create new laws or policies; instead, it serves as an official statement of appreciation from the Tennessee General Assembly for their civic dedication and personal legacy. Upon passage, a copy of the resolution will be prepared for presentation to the Beckham family.
