A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

TO REQUEST THAT THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION NAME THE INTERSECTION LOCATED AT THE JUNCTION OF UNITED STATES HIGHWAY 176 AND NEW HOPE CHURCH ROAD IN UNION COUNTY "JOAN BURGESS INTERSECTION" AND ERECT APPROPRIATE MARKERS OR SIGNS AT EACH ENTRANCE OF THIS INTERSECTION THAT CONTAIN THIS DESIGNATION.

Whereas, Joan Burgess was a wonderful mother who devoted a considerable amount of her time and energy assisting the Jonesville Schools in Union County during her children's formative years as well as after they became adults; and

Whereas, she supported the schools by running the Booster Club, Jonesville Wildcat Friday, Band Aid Club, and was a constant figure at various events sponsored by the elementary school and high school; and

Whereas, she was well respected and loved by all who knew her; and

Whereas, it would be fitting and proper to forever recognize Joan Burgess by having an intersection in Jonesville in Union County named in her honor. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate, the House of Representatives concurring:

That the members of the General Assembly request that the Department of Transportation name the intersection located at the junction of United States Highway 176 and New Hope Church Road in Union County "Joan Burgess Intersection" and erect appropriate markers or signs at each entrance of this intersection that contain this designation.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the Department of Transportation.
