A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO RECOGNIZE AND EXPRESS APPRECIATION TO SAM O. MARTIN, JR., FOR HIS SUPPORT AND CONTRIBUTIONS TO REPRESENTATIVE WALT MCLEOD IN PROVIDING HIGH QUALITY CONSTITUENT SERVICE DURING HIS TWENTY YEARS AS A MEMBER OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.

Whereas, Sam O. Martin, Jr., was reared in Summerton, Clarendon County, South Carolina, the son of Gwendolyn Coskrey Martin and Samuel Oliver Martin; and

Whereas, Sam Martin, Jr., graduated from Manning High School where he lettered in football, basketball, and baseball; and

Whereas, he attended Lander College and graduated from South Carolina State University; and

Whereas, his career in the construction industry afforded him the opportunity to travel throughout the United States eventually settling in Newberry County; and

Whereas, Sam Martin at a very young age, in 1962, handed out palm cards in the successful campaign to elect Thomasine G. Mason to the State Senate and in the successful re-election campaign of Congressman Mendel Rivers. Since locating in Newberry, he has provided creativity and support for a host of political candidates, including candidates for U.S. Senator, U.S. Congressman, Governor, Secretary of State, Comptroller General, State Treasurer, State Senator, and State Representative; and

Whereas, for the past twenty years, Mr. Martin has assisted Representative McLeod in providing premier constituent service in meeting the needs of the citizens of Newberry County and the citizens of the Chapin area of Lexington County; and

Whereas, it is fitting and proper that Mr. Martin's dedication and contributions to the achievements in constituency service during the tenure of Representative McLeod be acknowledged and recognized. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, recognize and express appreciation to Sam O.
