A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO COMMEND THE HONORABLE STEPHEN GOLDFINCH, JR., FOR HIS FOUR YEARS OF COMMITTED SERVICE TO THE CITIZENS OF DISTRICT 108 IN CHARLESTON AND GEORGETOWN COUNTIES AND TO WISH HIM HAPPINESS AND SUCCESS IN ALL HIS FUTURE ENDEAVORS.

Whereas, for four years, the Honorable Stephen Goldfinch, Jr., has represented the citizens of House District 108 in Charleston and Georgetown counties with integrity in the House of Representatives of this great State; and

Whereas, born in Conway, Murrells Inlet resident Stephen Goldfinch graduated with honors from The Citadel, where in 2004 he earned a bachelor's degree in biology, followed by a master's degree in business administration from the same institution in 2006. He received his juris doctor from the Charleston School of Law in 2010, and he is a founding partner at the firm of Goldfinch Winslow, LLC; and

Whereas, during his years in the House of Representatives, Stephen Goldfinch has proven his value as a member of the Judiciary Committee; and

Whereas, in the firm support of his family, Stephen finds the strength to carry out his duties. He and his lovely wife, Renee, already the proud parents of a two-year-old daughter, Hadlee Edwards, have just welcomed to the family a newborn addition, son Stephen L. Goldfinch III, to be called "Tripp"; and

Whereas, because he believes in playing an active role in bettering his community, Stephen has been involved with the Awendaw Community Action Group, Murrells Inlet 2020 Community Revitalization Group, Helping Hands of Georgetown, and Junior Achievement; and

Whereas, further, this licensed pilot, boat captain, master scuba diver, and long-time fishing enthusiast serves as chair of the Grand Strand Area Transportation Study Committee, Georgetown County Legislative Delegation, and Wildlife and Natural Resources Committee of the Charleston Delegation, as well as Captain of the South Carolina Guard (tasked as a JAG officer and search-and-rescue diver); and

Whereas, as a man of faith, Stephen worships with his family at Surfside Presbyterian Church, where his wife serves as director of children's ministries. Avid outdoors people, Stephen and Renee relish traveling and have a special fondness for Southern Africa, where they have helped distribute humanitarian aid and ministered to needy children; and

Whereas, Stephen Goldfinch's colleagues in the House of Representatives, understanding that he will not seek re-election, thank him for his dedicated service to the people of District 108 and extend heartiest 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, commend the Honorable Stephen Goldfinch, Jr., for his four years of committed service to the citizens of District 108 in Charleston and Georgetown counties and wish him happiness 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 Stephen Goldfinch, Jr.
