Bill > H5325

This resolution extends the deepest condolences of the Rhode Island House of Representatives on the passing of Gloria Messerlian, a beloved wife, mother, and community member from Cranston. The resolution highlights her life details, including being married to Robert Baxter Messerlian for 62 years, having two children (Lisa and Paul) and four grandchildren, and being originally from Pawtucket. It notes her strong religious background, including membership in the Armenian Evangelical Church of Cranston and involvement in various church activities, and mentions that she and her husband founded Baxter's Jewelry in 1960. The resolution characterizes her as a kind, warm woman guided by her faith in God and Christ, and was active in the Armenian community and local social circles. As a formal legislative action, the resolution not only honors her memory but also directs the Secretary of State to send certified copies of the resolution to her children's families, which is a traditional way of officially acknowledging and commemorating an individual's life and contributions.
