TO COMMEND OUR COLLEAGUE, B. L. HENDRICKS, JR., OF PICKENS COUNTY, FOR HIS DISTINGUISHED SERVICE AS A MEMBER OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES AND WISH HIM THE BEST FOR MUCH HAPPINESS IN THE YEARS AHEAD.
Whereas, the members of the General Assembly were saddened to learn that Representative B. L. Hendricks, Jr., of Pickens County has decided not to offer for re-election to the South Carolina House of Representatives; and
Whereas, Representative Hendricks has served in the House with great distinction for twenty-two years, longer than any previous member from Pickens County; and
Whereas, during his tenure, he capably served as Chairman of the Medical, Military, Public and Municipal Affairs Committee and as a member of the Rules, Judiciary, Judicial Screening, and Joint Health Care, Planning, and Oversight Committees; and
Whereas, he has made a lasting contribution to higher education in South Carolina by serving as a member of the Citadel Board of Visitors, the Board of Trustees of the Medical University of South Carolina, and on the Board of Visitors for Clemson University, his alma mater; and
Whereas, Representative Hendricks unselfishly gave of himself in service to his country during World War II as a pilot in the United States Air Force, retiring with the rank of Major; and
Whereas, he served with distinction as Mayor of Easley from 1965 to 1967; and
Whereas, the many contributions of Representative Hendricks to his county, state, and nation will long be remembered and appreciated; and
Whereas, the members of the General Assembly will greatly miss the wise counsel, warm handshake, and friendly smile of this true Southern gentleman and wish to extend to him and his lovely wife, Carolyn, every best wish for much happiness in the years ahead. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:
That the members of the General Assembly commend our colleague, B. L. Hendricks, Jr., of Pickens County, for his distinguished service as a member of the House of Representatives and wish him the best for much happiness in the future.
