Whereas, now seventy-three, Bill Yonce entered the exciting world of auctioneering in 1961 when he attended Reppert Auction School during a thirty-day leave from the Air Force. Over the following years, Yonce worked as a musician and disc jockey while conducting auctions in his free time; and
Whereas, in 1964, he entered the real estate business, but by the 1980s, he had changed his career to focus solely on being a full-time auctioneer; and

Whereas, the owner of W.M. Yonce Auction Marketing in Florence and senior auctioneer for the Carolina Auction Team, Inc. in Spartanburg, Bill Yonce has been active in numerous local organizations and charities. He also has conducted benefit auctions across the United States for forty years, serving, among other worthy causes, the Dave Thomas Foundation, for which he has raised millions in dollars to aid the organization in its focus on adoption; and
Whereas, cognizant of his well-deserved reputation for professional excellence and integrity, sustained over so many decades, the House of Representatives takes great pleasure in saluting Bill Yonce upon his being named to this high honor. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
