5/25/2004

TO COMMEND THE HONORABLE THOMAS G. KEEGAN OF HORRY COUNTY FOR HIS DISTINGUISHED SERVICE AS A MEMBER OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES SINCE 1989 UPON THE OCCASION OF HIS RETIREMENT FROM THE HOUSE AND TO EXTEND TO HIM EVERY BEST WISH IN ALL HIS FUTURE ENDEAVORS.

Whereas, the members of the House of Representatives have learned with deep and sincere regret that one of the most personable members of the House, the Honorable Thomas G. Keegan, will be retiring at the end of his term this year from the House; and

Whereas, Tom Keegan, affectionately known as "Chief", has served his district and Horry County with ability and distinction since the time he first joined the House in 1989; and

Whereas, Tom and his lovely wife, Marie, reside in Surfside Beach, and he is blessed with five wonderful children: Maureen, Jacqueline, Thomas, Jr., Sheila, and Molly; and

Whereas, he is a native of Greenwich, Connecticut, is a retired chief of police, and holds an A. S. degree from Norwalk Community College, a B. S. degree from Iona College, and honorary Ph.D. degrees from Francis Marion University and the Medical University of South Carolina. He is also an emeritus member of the board of trustees of Francis Marion University; and

Whereas, Tom Keegan is one of the most influential members of the House Ways and Means Committee and has done great work for public education, higher education, and educational reform as Chairman of Higher Education, Technical, and Cultural Subcommittee of the Ways and Means Committee; and

Whereas, in addition to his service in the House, he has been an active civic and community leader in Horry County through his work as Chairman of the Grand Strand Area Transportation Committee, and also with the Waccamaw Regional Planning and Development Council, and the House Tourism Caucus; and

Whereas, it will be hard to replace a member who is as warm and friendly as Tom Keegan, and all his colleagues in the House and in state government want him to know that their best wishes go with him as he enters a new phase of his life. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the House of Representatives commend the Honorable Thomas G. Keegan of Horry County for his distinguished service as a member of the House of Representatives since 1989 upon the occasion of his retirement from the House and extend to him every best wish in all his future endeavors.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to the Honorable Thomas G. Keegan.
