Whereas, she served her denomination with enthusiasm as the District Superintendent of the Columbia District of the United Methodist Church from 1998 to 2006; and
Whereas, on June 14, 2006, Reverend Ulmer was appointed to Carteret Street United Methodist Church in Beaufort where she has served the congregation faithfully for nine years; and

Whereas, she plans to spend many happy hours of retirement enjoying biking, water activities, camping, reading, traveling, cooking, and gardening; and
