   03/01/12  House  Introduced and adopted (House Journal-page 4)

TO EXPRESS THE PROFOUND SORROW OF THE MEMBERS OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES UPON THE DEATH OF THE HONORABLE STEPHEN P. KODMAN, SR., OF LEXINGTON COUNTY, AIKEN COUNTY ASSISTANT SOLICITOR, AND TO EXTEND THE DEEPEST SYMPATHY TO HIS FAMILY AND MANY FRIENDS.

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives were deeply saddened to learn of the death of the Honorable Stephen P. Kodman, Sr., of Lexington County on November 14, 2011; and

Whereas, born in Berea, Ohio, on January 4, 1971, Steve Kodman was a son of Ernest William Kodman, Sr., and Patricia Lea Progelhof; and

Whereas, in preparation for his life's work, he earned a bachelor's degree in political science at Lander College in Greenwood, graduating with honors, after which he earned his J.D. degree at the University of South Carolina School of Law; and

Whereas, an assistant solicitor for Aiken County at the time of his passing, Mr. Kodman spent the majority of his legal career as a prosecutor serving the State of South Carolina; and

Whereas, as assistant solicitor for Aiken County, he was active in the Aiken County Bar Association and dedicated to raising funds for the Aiken County Child Advocacy Center; and

Whereas, as a man of faith, he attended Radius Church in Lexington with his family. Steve Kodman was an avid Carolina Gamecock fan, active Republican, and competitive sportsman, but most important to him was spending time with his family and being a loving husband and devoted father to his three boys; and

Whereas, Steve Kodman leaves to cherish his memory his beloved wife, Jennifer S. Kodman; his three sons, Stephen Patrick, Jr., Thomas Anderson, and Andrew William Kodman; and a host of other family members and friends. He will be greatly missed. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, express their profound sorrow upon the death of the Honorable Stephen P. Kodman, Sr., of Lexington County, Aiken County assistant solicitor, and extend the deepest sympathy to his family and many friends.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be provided to Mrs. Jennifer S. Kodman for the family.
