RECOGNIZING AND HONORING ASSISTANT SERGEANT-AT-ARMS JIMMY WALTERS FOR HIS MANY YEARS OF LOYAL AND DEDICATED SERVICE TO THE SOUTH CAROLINA HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
Whereas, having prepared himself with many hours of training as an emergency medical technician, Jimmy Walters began work for the South Carolina House of Representatives in that capacity in 1984, later taking up his duties there as assistant sergeant-at-arms. Prior to this time, Walters had already trained at the South Carolina Fire Academy, and later, in 1986, he graduated from the South Carolina Criminal Justice Academy; and
Whereas, not one to neglect community service, he has been for over thirty years a valued member of the Fairfield County Rescue Squad and recently was honored as 2007 Volunteer of the Year; and
Whereas, equally respected by his fellow firefighters, Walters has served as member, fire chief, and assistant fire chief with the Fairfield Community Volunteer Fire Department for thirty years and has three times received the Fairfield Community Volunteer of the Year award; and
Whereas, he is also an active member of the Winnsboro First Church of the Nazarene and the South Carolina Association of Rescue Squads and has been a notary since 1986; and
Whereas, the integrity that drives Walters to give tirelessly of himself to community organizations also motivates him to a high level of professionalism as assistant sergeant-at-arms. Whether he is providing security to the House Chamber, delivering resolutions, or performing other duties, he is known for his excellence in service and his friendly smile. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, recognize and honor Assistant Sergeant-at-Arms Jimmy Walters for his many years of loyal and dedicated service to the South Carolina House of Representatives.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Assistant Sergeant-at-Arms Jimmy Walters.
