Whereas, the House of Representatives has learned that Maxine T. Robinson began a well-deserved retirement in December 2022 after forty years in the health field, the last of which had been as a forensic operations coordinator at the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) Physicians Group; and

Whereas, the daughter of Georgetta Robinson and the late Mack Robinson, she grew up in a loving home with four siblings: Alethia, Kenneth, Cathy, and Charles. She knows that the love and support of her family helped her to achieve, but without God, none of it would have been possible; and

Whereas, Ms. Robinson graduated from Berkeley High School in Moncks Corner in 1977, attended Benedict College from 1977 to 1978, and earned a bachelor's degree in health education from the University of South Carolina in 1982; and

Whereas, Ms. Robinson began a more than forty-year career in 1982 with a year at MUSC. She spent the next twelve years at the Charleston County Medical Examiner's Office, followed by an eight-month stint at the Holman Scott Funeral Home. She returned to MUSC serving more than twenty-six years in the Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine with the MUSC Physicians Group; and

Whereas, a faithful member of Doorway Baptist Church in North Charleston, she serves with Hearts in Service and with Operation Christmas Child Shoebox. She is an active member of the Spiritual Union Association of Oakley, serving as secretary from 2019 to 2022, and on the Fundraiser Committee; and

Whereas, Ms. Robinson has served her community as a notary public for the State of South Carolina since 1984, and as the secretary of the Charleston County Medical Examiner Commission from 1987 to 1997, and as a certified poll manager for the Charleston County Board of Elections since 2012; and

Whereas, a dedicated volunteer, she served as team captain for the March of Dimes Walk in 1997, Salvation Army Angel Tree from 2011 to 2012, Adopt-a-Child Giving (MUSC) from 2008 to 2009, Cooper River Bridge Run/Walk in 2010 and 2013, the Annual 5K Bridge Run/Walk Medical Team from 2009 to 2017 and in 2022, coordinator for Heart Walk in 2014, and MUSC YES Campaign from 2014 to 2019; and

Whereas, among the numerous awards for her service, Ms. Robinson received the MUSC Applause in Special Recognition, UMA Applause for a Job Well Done, and UMA Quarterly Applause Award, all in 2005; the Trident United Way Palmetto Award in 2008; the Trident United Luncheon Award and the Trident United Way (Day of Caring) Lowcountry Food Bank Recognition, both in 2009; the Roper Hospital Volunteer Recognition Award in 2013; and a Certificate of Service Award for her work as a committee member of the MUSC 2015 YES Campaign; and

Whereas, the first weekend of every November, she spends time with her Octagon sisters to recall fond memories and honor the legacy of her grandmother Katherine Cooper Scott Reid. She plans to spend happy hours of retirement walking, gardening, planting, and reading. Thankful for the freedom to praise God, she enjoys spending quiet moments on the beach and outings with friends and classmates; and

Whereas, grateful for her years of distinguished service, the South Carolina House of Representatives takes pleasure in extending best wishes to Maxine Robinson as she transitions to a richly deserved retirement and its leisurely pace, and the members wish her many years of enjoyment. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

Robinson, forensic operations coordinator with the Medical University of South Carolina Physicians Group, upon the occasion of her retirement after twenty-six years of outstanding service, and wish her continued success and happiness in all her future endeavors.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Maxine T. Robinson.
