The resolution honors Mary Louise Farrior White for her lifetime achievements and dedicated service to her community. It highlights her role in establishing the Willie & Betty Farrior Family Foundation, which provides scholarships to graduating seniors in Talladega County and collaborates with various organizations to give back to the community. The foundation is named after her father, Willie Farrior, a trailblazer as the first African American hired by the Alabama Institute for Deaf and Blind and recognized as Blind Worker of the Year in 1973.
In addition to her contributions through the foundation, Mrs. White has had a distinguished career in education, earning both a Bachelor's and Master's degree in Early Childhood Education and being inducted into the Jacksonville State University Teacher Hall of Fame. After retiring from a 32-year teaching career, she continued her community involvement through various organizations, including the American Association of Retired Persons and the NAACP. The resolution expresses gratitude for her extensive service and recognizes her as a devoted mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother who is committed to addressing the needs of her community.
