This concurrent resolution honors Melvin Deener of Shelby County on his retirement after fifty-three years of distinguished service to the City of Memphis, most notably as the longest-serving bus operator for the Memphis Area Transit Authority (MATA). The resolution acknowledges his dedication, noting that he began his career at MATA in February 1972, drove 1.5 million miles, and safely transported over four million passengers, highlighting his significant contributions to public service and the vitality of Tennessee, often referred to as the "Volunteer State" due to its citizens' commitment to serving others. The resolution formally extends heartfelt wishes for a happy and fulfilling retirement to Mr. Deener.
