VERSIONS OF THIS BILL
TO CONGRATULATE CHARLIE "SHAG" TILLMAN, LEGENDARY ROCK HILL HARRIS TEETER BUTCHER, ON THE OCCASION OF HIS RETIREMENT, TO THANK HIM FOR THIRTY-EIGHT YEARS OF COMMITTED SERVICE, AND TO WISH HIM MUCH SUCCESS AND HAPPINESS IN ALL HIS FUTURE ENDEAVORS.
Whereas, the House of Representatives has learned that Charlie "Shag" Tillman, after thirty-eight years of service, will retire in May 2011, from his post as Rock Hill Harris Teeter butcher; and
Whereas, for nearly four decades, Shag Tillman has carried out his duties with such excellence that he has become both an institution and a legend in Rock Hill; and
Whereas, his intelligence, friendliness, and efficiency have drawn admiration from customers, as well as from all those fortunate enough to have worked with him; and
Whereas, as a hard worker who takes a genuine interest in the people he serves, Shag Tillman, according to Andrew Dys of the Herald newspaper, "is no mere meat cutter. Shag is a showman, an emcee--a walking poster for how customer service means serving any and all in front of you"; and
Whereas, hired to train as a meat cutter off a Grand Union delivery truck thirty-eight years ago, Shag says he loves the public and wants to give them the quality they expect. As a result of this business philosophy, his customers and co-workers have responded to the news of his imminent retirement with pleas that he stay on and not leave his post; and
Whereas, Shag Tillman won't be idle after he retires. He is looking forward to spending more time with family, continuing his service as a volunteer firefighter in Fairfield County, where he lives, and fishing as often as he can, which is very often; and
Whereas, in honor of his retirement, his many friends will hold a celebratory event on May 26, 2011, to thank him for all he has done for them; and
Whereas, grateful for his commitment to excellence, the House of Representatives wishes to express its gratitude for Shag Tillman's exemplary service to the people of Rock Hill. The members hope he will find much joy in the increased leisure time he will soon be able to devote to family, friends, and other interests during a well-earned retirement. He will be greatly missed. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, congratulate Charlie "Shag" Tillman, legendary Rock Hill Harris Teeter butcher, on the occasion of his retirement, thank him for thirty-eight years of committed service, and wish him much success and happiness in all his future endeavors.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be provided to Charlie "Shag" Tillman.
