TO COMMEND THE HONORABLE DAVID MULDROW BEASLEY OF MARLBORO COUNTY, OUR GOOD FRIEND AND DISTINGUISHED COLLEAGUE, FOR HIS FRIENDSHIP AND OUTSTANDING LEADERSHIP IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES AND TO EXTEND TO HIM BEST WISHES IN HIS FUTURE ENDEAVORS.
Whereas, our dear friend and respected colleague, David Muldrow Beasley, has decided not to seek re-election to House District 56 for Darlington and Marlboro counties; and
Whereas, David was first elected to the House of Representatives in 1979 at the age of twenty-two bringing with him the enthusiasm and energy of youth but also a quick wit and keen intellect, ready to take it all in and move full speed ahead; and
Whereas, however, his start was a little slow--in fact, perhaps the slowest legislative start ever--as David walked all the way to Columbia from Darlington County to protest the challenge being made to his election by his opponent; and
Whereas, once he arrived in Columbia, it didn't take this representative long to really get moving and he hasn't stopped since--as is evident by the many positions of responsibility and leadership he has attained during his service in the House; and
Whereas, Representative Beasley has served with distinction and was very effective as vice-chairman of the Joint Legislative Committee on Children, the House Majority Leader, and chairman of the House Education and Public Works Committee; and
Whereas, his leadership, cooperative spirit, and good nature have won him the respect and admiration of his colleagues, who in January, 1991, elected him as Speaker Pro Tempore; and
Whereas, David has gained a reputation of being honest and fair but also vocal and dedicated to those causes he holds dear; he has been an avid spokesperson for children--those born and those not yet born; and
Whereas, humor, kindness, and love for his fellowman are attributes that have served David well in the House and are matched if not exceeded by the dedication, commitment, and integrity with which he has served his constituents, the State, and this body; and
Whereas, while David, the representative, has grown in his legislative career from novice to leader; David, the person, also has grown; he's gone from being a frolicking law school freshman to being the devoted husband and loving father of two darling daughters; and
Whereas, David's impassioned pleas from the podium, his warm smile, great sense of humor, and compelling leadership will be missed by all and replaced by none. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
That the House of Representatives, by this resolution, commends the Honorable David Muldrow Beasley of Marlboro County, our good friend and distinguished colleague, for his friendship and outstanding leadership in the House of Representatives and extends to him our best wishes in his future endeavors.
