VERSIONS OF THIS BILL
TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR RALPH HANAHAN OF IRMO FOR HIS INCREDIBLE DISPLAY OF FRIENDSHIP AND COMPASSION FOR HELPING A CO-WORKER IN NEED.
Whereas, it is a great pleasure and a great honor for the South Carolina Senate to recognize individuals who, through self sacrifice, assist others out of the goodness of their hearts; and
Whereas, Ralph Hanahan was employed at the Governor's School for Arts and Humanities in Greenville when budget cuts demanded that either Mr. Hanahan or a co-worker he had worked side by side with for three years lose their job; and
Whereas, Ralph Hanahan, despite having seniority over his co-worker, voluntarily walked away from his job with twenty-one years of tenure with the State, including medical benefits, so that his co-worker, the father of a child with autism, could maintain a source of income and insurance; and
Whereas, Ralph Hanahan and his family selflessly and voluntarily gave up their income and security in these uncertain times simply because they felt it was the "right thing" to do. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the Senate:
That the members of the Senate of the State of South Carolina, by this resolution, recognize and honor Ralph Hanahan on behalf of his exceptional display of compassion and self sacrifice.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to Ralph Hanahan.
