Bill Summary
to honor the memory of Margie Lois Shuler Caughron.
AI Summary
This resolution honors the memory of Margie Lois Shuler Caughron, a Tennessee native who lived to be 100 years old and spent much of her life in Cades Cove. Born in 1924 in a logging camp, Caughron was part of a large family that moved frequently before settling in Cades Cove, where she and her husband Kermit raised four children in challenging conditions without electricity, cooking on a wood stove and maintaining a self-sufficient lifestyle. The resolution highlights her remarkable life, including her ability to welcome diverse visitors to her home, her resilience in raising a family in a rustic environment, and her extensive family legacy spanning multiple generations. The document specifically recognizes her survival of her husband and several siblings, details her surviving family members including children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and great-great-grandchildren, and praises her character, describing her as leaving "an indelible legacy of integrity and probity in public life, compassion and loyalty in private life, and diligence and dedication in all her chosen endeavors." The resolution formally expresses sympathy to her family and ensures that an official copy of the resolution will be prepared for presentation.
