A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

HONORING THE HONORABLE DOUGLAS EVANS McTEER, JR., OF HAMPTON COUNTY FOR HIS DEDICATED AND DISTINGUISHED EIGHTEEN YEARS OF CONTINUOUS SERVICE IN THE SOUTH CAROLINA HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES AND ON THE OCCASION OF HIS RETIREMENT FROM THIS LEGISLATIVE BODY.

Whereas, it is with a sense of sadness the members of the House of Representatives have recently learned that The Honorable Douglas Evans McTeer, Jr., has decided not to seek reelection to this body; and

Whereas, Representative McTeer's decision not to seek reelection will mark the end of eighteen years of faithful service to the citizens of Hampton, Colleton, Beaufort, and Jasper Counties and to the State of South Carolina; and

Whereas, Doug was proudly born on January 3, 1951, in Hampton, South Carolina, to the parents of Douglas E. and the late Alice (Senn) McTeer; and

Whereas, he graduated from The Citadel in 1973 with a B.S. degree and from the University of South Carolina in 1975 with a M.S. degree; and

Whereas, he is married to the former Deborah Huskins and the couple have three children: Shana, Evans, and Caroline; and

Whereas, our good friend was first elected to the South Carolina House of Representatives in 1979; and

Whereas, Doug McTeer's keen insight into the rules of the House of Representatives has been ably demonstrated by his service on the Rules Committee, serving as Vice Chairman and then Chairman from 1990 to 1994; and

Whereas, Representative McTeer has distinguished himself through his many years of active and committed service on behalf of his constituents; and

Whereas, Douglas Evans McTeer, Jr., is highly deserving of recognition and of an expression of gratitude for all that he has accomplished during his tenure in the House of Representatives, and we extend to him best wishes for the future. Now, therefore,

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

That the members of the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina, by this resolution, honor The Honorable Douglas Evans McTeer, Jr., of Hampton County for his dedicated and distinguished eighteen years of continuous service in the South Carolina House of Representatives on the occasion of his retirement from this legislative body.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to The Honorable Douglas Evans McTeer, Jr.
