The resolution celebrates the 110th birthday of Emma Robinson, a remarkable individual born on February 9, 1914, who has achieved the status of supercentenarian, a milestone reached by only a small fraction of centenarians. Emma was born in LaFayette, Alabama, and pursued her education at Alabama State University and Alabama A&M University. She was actively involved in the Civil Rights Movement, where she met her husband, Steven Robinson. After moving to Talladega, she dedicated 35 years to teaching in the local school systems, demonstrating a deep commitment to the education and development of children in her community.
In recognition of her significant contributions and positive influence, Emma Robinson has been honored with a proclamation from Talladega's Mayor and Councilwoman. The resolution expresses the privilege of acknowledging her extraordinary life and the wisdom she has gained over her 110 years. It commends her for her achievements and extends sincere wishes for her continued prosperity and blessings.
