A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR THE INSURANCE AGENCY OF DAN L. TILLMAN AND SONS, INC., IN CHESTERFIELD COUNTY FOR NINE DECADES OF DEDICATED SERVICE TO THE CITIZENS OF CHERAW AND THE SURROUNDING AREA.

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives are pleased to learn that Dan L. Tillman and Sons, Inc., insurance agency, is celebrating its ninetieth anniversary of providing vital services to those in the Cheraw community; and

Whereas, serving as the town of Cheraw's Clerk in 1926, Daniel Lee Tillman, Sr., established an insurance agency in Cheraw out of an interest in the business and the obvious need of the citizens living in Cheraw and its environs; and

Whereas, as the agency began to develop, Daniel Lee Tillman, Sr., offered his son Francis Marion Tillman the opportunity to help expand the agency. A few years later, Daniel Lee Tillman, Jr., also joined the firm, and together they continued to develop the agency; and

Whereas, several decades later Daniel Lee Tillman, Jr., offered his sons Daniel Lee Tillman III (1978) and William "Bill" Raines Tillman (1982) a similar opportunity to join the agency and carry it into the twenty-first century; and

Whereas, Dan L. Tillman and Sons, Inc., as a result, has been in business for ninety years and is deeply rooted in the Town of Cheraw and in Chesterfield County. Although business and technology have undergone phenomenal changes, the principles and traditions of this community business have kept an ever vigilant and protective eye over its clients who now live near and far; and

Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives is grateful for the significant and meaningful service that Dan L. Tillman and Sons, Inc., has afforded the citizens of Cheraw, and the members congratulate all of the partners and staff upon reaching this momentous milestone. 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 honor the insurance agency of Dan L. Tillman and Sons, Inc., in Chesterfield County for nine decades of dedicated service to the citizens of Cheraw and the surrounding area.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Dan L. Tillman and Sons, Inc.
