VERSIONS OF THIS BILL
TO RECOGNIZE AND CONGRATULATE BARBARA "BABS" LINDSAY, SECRETARY TO CIRCUIT COURT JUDGE G. THOMAS COOPER, JR., UPON THE OCCASION OF HER RETIREMENT, AND TO WISH HER CONTINUED SUCCESS AND FULFILLMENT IN ALL HER FUTURE ENDEAVORS.
Whereas, the members of the South Carolina Senate have learned that Barbara "Babs" Lindsay, secretary to Circuit Court Judge G. Thomas Cooper, Jr., soon will begin a much-deserved retirement after many years of distinguished service to the people of South Carolina; and
Whereas, this native of Chester County began her career in 1973 as a member of the secretarial pool for the South Carolina House of Representatives. In the mid 1980s, she resigned from the House to work full-time for Mike Daniel in his run for Governor. Later, she returned to state government as head of the House word processing unit, resigning after approximately thirteen years; and
Whereas, upon leaving her position, Babs was honored with a House resolution, and she was the first nonlegislative female to stand at the podium with the Speaker of the House of that time while the House was in session. Babs also received the Key to the City from Columbia Mayor Bob Coble; and
Whereas, after working on the Mike Daniel campaign, she served on the staffs of other campaigns for several years, including those of Mayor Bob Coble, Jim Leventis, Dick Harpootlian, Senator Warren Giese, Solicitor Barney Giese, and Sheriff Leon Lott. In addition, she worked for Solicitor Dick Harpootlian for a time; and
Whereas, Babs Lindsay served full-time on Barney Giese's campaign for solicitor and upon his election came to work as his executive assistant, serving in the solicitor's office for sixteen years. Currently, she is secretary to the Honorable G. Thomas Cooper, Jr., resident circuit judge for the 5th Judicial Circuit; and
Whereas, Babs Lindsay and her late husband, Jack Lindsay, proudly parented two children, Rocky Morris and the late Stephen Morris; and
Whereas, the Senate, grateful for the consistent commitment and excellence Barbara Lindsay has demonstrated in her service to the people of South Carolina, takes great pleasure in wishing her well as she enters retirement and trusts she 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 congratulate Barbara "Babs" Lindsay, secretary to Circuit Court Judge G. Thomas Cooper, Jr., upon the occasion of her retirement, and wish her continued success and fulfillment in all her future endeavors.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be provided to Barbara "Babs" Lindsay.
