A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

EXPRESSING APPRECIATION TO THE HONORABLE ROBERT L. (BOBBY) HELMLY OF BERKELEY COUNTY, OUR GOOD FRIEND AND DISTINGUISHED COLLEAGUE, FOR HIS FRIENDSHIP AND EXCELLENT LEGISLATIVE SERVICE, AND EXTENDING HIM BEST WISHES FOR HAPPINESS AND SUCCESS IN HIS FUTURE ENDEAVORS.

Whereas, since November of 1988 the Honorable Robert Linwood Helmly of Berkeley County has served as a member of the South Carolina Senate; and

Whereas, from 1973 to 1988 Bobby Helmly was a member of the South Carolina House of Representatives; and

Whereas, in both bodies he has rendered outstanding legislative service and has always worked to do what is best overall for the people of this great State; and

Whereas, we in the General Assembly have known Bobby as a truly dedicated public servant -- hardworking, loyal, friendly, cooperative, and supportive; and

Whereas, Bobby has been one of the most popular and most highly respected South Carolina legislators in recent memory -- among his colleagues in the State House and among the citizens from one end of the Palmetto State to the other; and

Whereas, he has decided not to seek re-election this year and is therefore retiring from legislative service -- a fact we accept with sadness because his departure from the State House will be a personal loss not only to us but also to the people of South Carolina who have come to know that Bobby Helmly of Berkeley County stands for good government; and

Whereas, we hope that he will not forget us and that he will be happy in all of his endeavors following the end of his current legislative term of office. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:

That we, the members of the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina, by this resolution, express appreciation to the Honorable Robert L. (Bobby) Helmly of Berkeley County, our good friend and distinguished colleague, for his friendship and excellent legislative service and extend to him our best wishes for happiness and success in his future endeavors.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the Honorable Robert L. Helmly.
