TO COMMEND CAROL FOWLER, FORMER CHAIRMAN OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA DEMOCRATIC PARTY, FOR HER MANY YEARS OF COMMITTED SERVICE TO THE PEOPLE OF SOUTH CAROLINA.

Whereas, the House of Representatives has learned that Carol Fowler has retired from her position as Chairman of the South Carolina Democratic Party; and

Whereas, she served as a member of the Democratic National Committee, beginning in 1989 and served on both the Executive Committee and the Rules and Bylaws Committee of the Democratic National Committee; and

Whereas, as a member of the Rules and Bylaws Committee, she was a moving force in bringing the early Democratic primary to South Carolina, an event that not only showcases our State to all the country, but also has proved to be an asset to the party;

Whereas, in South Carolina, she was the former Chair of the Richland County Democratic Party, and she served as the South Carolina Democratic Party vice chair for twenty years from 1988 to 2007; and

Whereas, for the last four years, Carol Fowler has served two consecutive terms as the Chair of the South Carolina Democratic Party; and

Whereas, believing in carrying her service beyond the doors of her office to the people of South Carolina, she serves on the Board of Directors for the Domestic Abuse Center and the Cooperative Ministries and is a member of Washington Street United Methodist Church; and

Whereas, married to Don Fowler, former Chair of the Democratic National Committee, she is the proud mother of two fine children, who have given their parents the joy of two adoring grandchildren; and

Whereas, cognizant of her dedicated service to the citizens of the Palmetto State, the members of the House of Representatives extend grateful thanks to this daughter of South Carolina for the respect and recognition her work has brought to our great State. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, commend Carol Fowler, former Chairman of the South Carolina Democratic Party, for her many years of committed service to the people of South Carolina.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be provided to Carol Fowler.
