Memorials, Death - Chief Freddie Joe Devotie -

This bill is a Senate Joint Resolution that formally honors the memory of Chief Freddie Joe Devotie, a retired fire chief from Jefferson City, Tennessee. It recognizes his thirty-eight-year career in the fire service, where he founded and led the Lakeway Central Volunteer Fire Department for over three decades, as well as his twenty-five years as a pastor. The resolution commends his leadership, community service, and faith, and expresses the state's sympathy to his surviving family members. Because this is a commemorative measure rather than a law creating new rules, it does not change any policies or affect public programs.
