Whereas, the members of the Senate have learned with deep and sincere regret that one of the most personable members of the Senate, the Honorable Robert L. (Bob) Waldrep, Jr., will be retiring at the end of his term this year from the Senate; and
Whereas, Bob Waldrep has served his district, Anderson County, and the State of South Carolina with ability and distinction since the time he first joined the Senate in 1993; and
Whereas, he is a native of Greenville, resides in Anderson County, and is blessed with three wonderful children: Caroline Elizabeth, Robert Lee III, and Arren Taylor; and
Whereas, he holds A. B. and LL.B. degrees from the University of South Carolina and is one of the most respected attorneys in the upstate of South Carolina; and
Whereas, he began his public service career in local government. He was City Attorney for Anderson from 1970-1974 and served on Anderson County Council from 1990-1992, and as its chairman from 1991-1992; and
Whereas, as a member of the General Assembly, he chairs the Senate Agriculture and Natural Resources Committee and has been an effective voice for the advancement of our state's farming and agricultural interests and also the preservation of this state's outstanding natural resources which are a legacy for generations to come; and
Whereas, his abilities and effectiveness have been recognized by many groups and constituents, and he has been named Legislator of the Year by the South Carolina Victim Assistance Network for 2002 and Legislator of the Year by the South Carolina Association of Conservation Districts for 2003; and
Whereas, it will be hard to replace a member who is as warm and friendly as Bob Waldrep, and all his colleagues in the Senate and in state government want him to know that their best wishes go with him as he leaves the General Assembly. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the Senate:
That the members of the South Carolina Senate commend the Honorable Robert L. (Bob) Waldrep, Jr., of Anderson County for his distinguished service as a member of the Senate of South Carolina since 1993 upon the occasion of his retirement from the Senate and wish him Godspeed in all his future endeavors.
