Bill > HJR0297

This resolution recognizes and honors Marjorie Ann Bowser "Marjie" Mahar, a community leader from Tennessee with a rich family military history. The resolution highlights her background as the youngest of eight children from New Kensington, Pennsylvania, who became a licensed practical nurse and is married with four children and five grandchildren. Of particular significance is her connection to her brother, Private First Class Roland Bowser, who was captured and died as a prisoner of war during the Korean War. Mahar is an active member of Temple Baptist Church and the Daughters of the American Revolution, and she has dedicated herself to preserving her brother's memory by sharing her family's story of sacrifice, love of country, and commitment to freedom. The resolution commends her for her public service, her efforts to honor service members, and her embodiment of community values, ultimately expressing appreciation for her contributions to Tennessee and beyond, and extending best wishes for her continued success.
