A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO COMMEND CAPTAIN LARRY HOLBROOKS, SOUTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER, FOR MORE THAN THIRTY-FIVE YEARS OF DEDICATED SERVICE TO THE AGENCY AND TO THE PEOPLE OF SOUTH CAROLINA UPON THE OCCASION OF HIS RETIREMENT, AND TO WISH HIM MANY YEARS OF HEALTH AND HAPPINESS IN ALL HIS FUTURE ENDEAVORS.

Whereas, the members of the House of Representatives note that, after more than thirty-five years of dedicated service, Captain Larry Holbrooks retired on March 1, 2010, from his position as a South Carolina Department of Natural Resources law enforcement officer; and

Whereas, during his tenure with the Department of Natural Resources' law enforcement division, Captain Holbrooks delivered capable, professional service, being named District 1 Officer of the Year in both 1974 and 1992 in recognition of his fine work. Further career honors include the 2002 Communications Conservation Award, 1999 Outstanding State Employee Award, and 1998 Osprey Award for Environmental Excellence; and

Whereas, Captain Holbrooks began his career with the Department of Natural Resources in 1974, when he was hired as a conservation officer. Respected by peers and commanding officers alike, he was promoted first to law enforcement officer, then to private first class, corporal, buck sergeant, first sergeant, and, finally, captain; and

Whereas, believing a man should be actively involved in his community, Larry Holbrooks currently serves as a deacon at Westminster First Church in Westminster, where he has been a member for more than twenty years. He also serves on several other church committees; and

Whereas, based in his Westminster home, Captain Holbrooks hopes to enjoy his well-earned retirement with his wife, Wanda, their two children, and his six grandchildren; and

Whereas, the House of Representatives is pleased to have this opportunity to convey to Captain Holbrooks their deepest appreciation for his long years of distinguished service and leadership as an employee of the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources and for setting the bar high for those who will follow him. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, commend Captain Larry Holbrooks, South Carolina Department of Natural Resources law enforcement officer, for more than thirty-five years of dedicated service to the agency and to the people of South Carolina upon the occasion of his retirement, and wish him many years of health and happiness in all his future endeavors.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be provided to Captain Larry Holbrooks.
