A SENATE RESOLUTION

TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR BRETT MCLAUGHLIN OF OCONEE COUNTY, EDITOR OF THE JOURNAL NEWSPAPER IN SENECA, UPON THE OCCASION OF HIS RETIREMENT, AND TO WISH HIM CONTINUED SUCCESS AND FULFILLMENT IN ALL HIS FUTURE ENDEAVORS.

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina Senate have learned that Brett McLaughlin will begin a much-deserved retirement after twenty years of dedicated service with Edwards Group, which he previously served as publisher of the company's newspaper in Caro, Michigan, and currently serves as editor of The Journal newspaper, located in Seneca; and

Whereas, while Brett McLaughlin's knowledge, work ethic, and dedication first garnered the respect of his peers in the publishing industry many years ago, it is his genuine interest in the people of Oconee County that has won the hearts of the community during his career at The Journal; and

Whereas, his editorial staff members describe him as an esteemed mentor who has always led and inspired by example, one they will greatly miss; and

Whereas, because of the exceptional personal leadership and journalistic skills Brett McLaughlin has employed so effectively, each morning thousands of people across Oconee County have enjoyed reading professional, impeccably written coverage of local news stories; and

Whereas, the Senate, grateful for the consistent commitment and excellence Brett McLaughlin has demonstrated in his service to the people of Oconee County, takes great pleasure in wishing him well as he enters retirement and trusts he will find much enjoyment in the more leisurely pace of the days ahead. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate:

That the members of the South Carolina Senate, by this resolution, recognize and honor Brett McLaughlin of Oconee County, editor of The Journal newspaper in Seneca, upon the occasion of his retirement, and wish him continued success and fulfillment in all his future endeavors.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be provided to Brett McLaughlin.
