   06/08/21  House  Introduced and adopted (House Journal-page 9)

TO CONGRATULATE AND HONOR CAPTAIN DAVE MCROBERTS UPON THE OCCASION OF HIS RETIREMENT, TO COMMEND HIM FOR NEARLY THIRTY YEARS OF DEDICATED SERVICE WITH THE RICHLAND COUNTY SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT, AND TO WISH HIM MUCH HAPPINESS AND FULFILLMENT IN ALL HIS FUTURE ENDEAVORS.

Whereas, it is with great pleasure that the South Carolina House of Representatives recognizes individuals who give tirelessly of themselves as dedicated public servants; and

Whereas, Dave McRoberts, retiring captain of the Richland County Sheriff's Department, stands among their number as one much admired for his many years of committed service to the citizens of South Carolina; and

Whereas, a native of West Columbia, Captain McRoberts attended Brookland-Cayce High School and has lived in Lexington County his entire life; and

Whereas, he began his twenty-eight-year career with the Richland County Sheriff's Department on May 1, 1993; and

Whereas, in May 1997, he was promoted to investigator, with time spent in the Narcotics Division. In March 2004, he received another promotion, this time to sergeant in the Investigations Division; and

Whereas, he was further promoted in May 2009 to lieutenant over Community Services, which included the department's Drug Suppression Unit, Community Action Team, Public Information Office, and Code Enforcement; and

Whereas, then followed promotion to captain over Community Services in July 2014, after which he became captain over the Fugitive Task Force and Warrant Division and captain over Region Three in the Uniform Division; and

Whereas, on June 11, 2021, Captain McRoberts will begin a well-deserved retirement after nearly three decades of faithful service to the Richland County Sheriff's Department; and

Whereas, over the years, Dave McRoberts has found strength for his labors in the strong support of his family: his lovely wife, Debbie, and their two children, Kristen Shuler and Joey McRoberts; and

Whereas, a man of faith, Dave serves the Lord as a deacon at Northside Baptist Church; and

Whereas, after his retirement from the Richland County Sheriff's Department, he will serve in a new position at Michelin, but he also plans on spending more time with his family and grandchildren, who are the most important people in his life; and

Whereas, the House is grateful for the legacy of commitment and excellence that this son of South Carolina has bestowed on the people of this great State, most particularly those of Richland County, and the members trust he will find much enjoyment in the more leisurely pace of the days ahead. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, congratulate and honor Captain Dave McRoberts upon the occasion of his retirement, commend him for nearly thirty years of dedicated service with the Richland County Sheriff's Department, and wish him much happiness and fulfillment in all his future endeavors.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Captain Dave McRoberts.
