A HOUSE RESOLUTION
TO OFFER THE DEEP APPRECIATION OF THE MEMBERS OF
THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE STATE OF
SOUTH CAROLINA TO OUR THIRD FLOOR BLATT
BUILDING RECEPTIONIST, RUTH M. CHAMBERS ON THE
OCCASION OF HER RETIREMENT AND TO WISH HER ALL
THE BEST AS SHE BRINGS HER SERVICE TO THIS BODY TO
A CLOSE.
Whereas, we have learned with regret that Ruth M. Chambers, one of
the Palmetto State's most dedicated employees and a revered member
of the Blatt Building staff; and
Whereas, as of July 1, 1998, Ruth Chambers will have worked for the
House of Representatives for eighteen years, five months, three
weeks, and six days; and
Whereas, Ruth was a devoted and faithful wife to her husband, the
late Harold D. Chambers and the couple were blessed with three
sons : David, Mark, and Joe and two daughters-in-law, Gloria and
Elizabeth; and
Whereas, Ruth has only one grandchild, Carly Jane, who is truly her
heartstring, the apple of her life, and, definitely her pride and joy; and
Whereas, her religious convictions are genuine because she practices
them every moment of every day. She is a loyal member of
Longcreek Church of Christ; and
Whereas, Ruth loves to travel abroad; visit with her sister, Grace, in
Charlotte, North Carolina; visit her brother, Robert, and baby sister,
Helen, in Florence, Alabama; flies to Chicago to be with her oldest
son, David, and his wife, Gloria; and, last but not least, she drives to
the mountains to be with her precious granddaughter, Carly Jane, and
Whereas, the constituents of Representatives Alex Harvin, Gilda
Cobb-Hunter, Joe Neal, and James Smith will be devastated when
they call and no longer hear her sweet loving "soprano"
voice.
Whereas, the entire House membership and its staff, along with her
supervisor, Ann Martin and coworkers, Paulette, Betty, and Marcia
have all become a part of her extended family and would like to
thank her for making the Blatt Building a "special" place;
and
Whereas, the members of the House of Representatives want Ruth
Chambers to know that her character, spirit, and gentle personality
have added greatly to the hallowed halls of the Blatt Building. Now,
therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
That the members of the House of Representatives of the State of
South Carolina hereby offer their deep appreciation to their Third
Floor Blatt Building Receptionist, Ruth M. Chambers, on the
occasion of her retirement and wish her all the best as she brings her
service to this body to a close.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to
Ruth M. Chambers.
