The Senate assembled at 11:00 A.M., the hour to which it stood adjourned, and was called to order by the ACTING PRESIDENT, Senator JACKSON.

On motion of Senator LEVENTIS, with unanimous consent, the Senate stood adjourned out of respect to the memory of James T. (Tommy) Glasscock and Anthony P. (Tony) Bracalente, two wonderful men who devoted their lives to our country through service in the military. Tommy served in the U.S. Marine Corps and Tony served in the U.S. Navy. They served the State of South Carolina while living in Sumter County through their businesses, church and civic activities. Interestingly, Tommy's daughter, Zan, married Tony's son, Chip, which joined these families together, doubling their sorrow when suffering the loss of these two great men so close together. Both were extraordinary men who quietly and tirelessly served the Sumter community with generous hearts. They leave behind a legacy of service and goodwill, and they will be remembered by the many people whose lives they touched over the years. Our world is a better and brighter place because of Tommy Glasscock and Tony Bracalente, and they will be deeply missed.

At 11:07 A.M., on motion of Senator LOURIE, the Senate adjourned to meet next Tuesday, February 3, 2009, at 12:00 Noon.
