This bill is a ceremonial resolution expressing the House of Representatives' condolences on the death of Pastor Cleonies Odom, Sr. It does not create any new laws or affect any policies, as it is solely a symbolic gesture honoring his life and legacy. The resolution details his 53-year ministry at Jewell Street Baptist Church, community service, family, and recognition in Shreveport (including "Cleonies Odom Sr. Day" in 2007). It directly affects his family, congregation, and community by formally acknowledging his contributions. As a purely commemorative measure, it has no practical policy impact.
