Whereas, the members of the South Carolina General Assembly have learned that Lloyd I. Hendricks of Columbia, president and CEO of the South Carolina Bankers Association (SCBA), will begin a well-deserved retirement on June 30, 2012, after twenty-five years of outstanding service to the SCBA; and
Whereas, in preparation for his life's work, the Greenville native earned a bachelor's degree in English from the University of South Carolina, followed by a juris doctor at the University of South Carolina School of Law; and
Whereas, Lloyd Hendricks joined the South Carolina Bankers Association in 1986 after a long career as a banker, attorney, and member of the South Carolina House of Representatives. He began his banking career in 1968 and left First Union National Bank as executive vice president and group executive to lead the SCBA, where over the years he was credited with many successes in state and federal legislation, economic development, financial-literacy efforts, and sound financial-association management; and
Whereas, as a legislator, Mr. Hendricks served five terms (1976-1986) in the South Carolina House of Representatives, earning a reputation that garnered him the Legislator of the Year award in 1984 from the South Carolina Chamber of Commerce and in 1985 from the Greenville News. In addition, he was awarded the highest honor in banking in the Palmetto State when he was named Outstanding Young Banker in 1980. Further recognition followed in 1997, at which time Governor David Beasley bestowed on Mr. Hendricks the Order of the Palmetto, the highest civilian award granted by the State of South Carolina; and
Whereas, believing strongly in active community involvement, Lloyd Hendricks currently serves as a member of Eastminster Presbyterian Church, the Congaree Land Trust Board of Directors, Rural Economic Development Council, South Carolina Bar Association, Hibernian Society, and several other community and civic organizations; and
Whereas, Mr. Hendricks finds his strongest encouragement in the support of his family, his wife, the former Susan Spangler, and their two sons, Inman and Christian. Among his greatest delights are his four grandchildren, Christian, Walker, Caroline, and Inman, along with another grandson on the way; and
Whereas, Mr. Hendricks' overriding desire was to work faithfully and diligently with the General Assembly, the Executive Branch, and the Judiciary, to ensure that South Carolina's banks remained healthy and able to provide the assistance necessary to all people and communities in South Carolina; and
Whereas, the General Assembly is grateful for the legacy of consistent commitment and excellence that Lloyd Hendricks has given to the people of South Carolina in both public and private service. The members take great pleasure in wishing him well as he enters retirement and trust he will find much enjoyment in the more leisurely pace of the days ahead. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:
That the members of the South Carolina General Assembly, by this resolution, recognize and honor Lloyd I. Hendricks of Columbia, president and CEO of the South Carolina Bankers Association, upon the occasion of his retirement and wish him continued success and fulfillment in all his future endeavors.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Lloyd I. Hendricks.
