A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO CONGRATULATE AND COMMEND THE HONORABLE NORMAN D. "DOUG" BRANNON ON HIS MERITORIOUS SERVICE IN THE SOUTH CAROLINA HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OVER THE PAST SIX YEARS AND TO WISH HIM CONTENTMENT AND SUCCESS IN ALL HIS FUTURE ENDEAVORS.

Whereas, for six years, the Honorable Norman D. "Doug" Brannon with faithful integrity has represented the citizens of Spartanburg County's District 38 in the House of Representatives of this great State; and

Whereas, this native of Detroit, Michigan, was born on April 22, 1961, to Norman and Marion E. Brannon; and

Whereas, in preparation for his career and future public service, the young Doug earned his bachelor's degree at the University of South Carolina in 1996, followed by a juris doctor in 2000 from the University of South Carolina School of Law; and

Whereas, presently residing in Landrum, Doug serves his fellow citizens as an attorney with the Kennedy|Brannon, PA, law firm. He was elected to serve in the South Carolina House of Representatives and in 2011 began his first term as a member of that body; and

Whereas, on the occasion of his election to the House, Doug Brannon had already proven his worth as a public servant, having previously served on Landrum City Council (1991-1993) and as mayor of the City of Landrum (1993-1997); and

Whereas, during his years in the House, Doug Brannon has used his experience for the benefit of his constituents and other citizens of our State as a member of the Judiciary Committee and Election Laws Subcommittee. After the tragic events of June 17, 2015, at Charleston's Mother Emanuel Church, he was the first in his party to call publicly for the removal of the Confederate flag from the grounds of the South Carolina State House. Known as somewhat of a "maverick," Representative Brannon has rendered service marked by his choice always to do what he feels is right for all the people of South Carolina, rather than what is perhaps politically expedient; and

Whereas, as a proud husband and father, Doug Brannon finds his strongest support in his lovely wife, Tracey, and his four delightful children, Spike, Chris, Lexi, and Cody; and

Whereas, Doug Brannon's colleagues in the House of Representatives thank him for his dedication to the people of District 38 and extend best wishes for all the best life has to offer in the coming years. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, congratulate and commend the Honorable Norman D. "Doug" Brannon on his meritorious service in the South Carolina House of Representatives over the past six years and wish him contentment and success in all his future endeavors.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to our distinguished colleague, the Honorable Norman D. "Doug" Brannon.
