A HOUSE RESOLUTION
TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR WILLIAM PARKER TUTEN, JR., UPON THE
OCCASION OF HIS RETIREMENT AFTER THIRTYSIX YEARS OF OUTSTANDING
SERVICE AND TO WISH HIM CONTINUED SUCCESS AND HAPPINESS IN ALL HIS
FUTURE ENDEAVORS.
Whereas, it is altogether fitting and proper that the members of
the House of Representatives of the State of South Carolina should
pause in their deliberations to express their gratitude to William
“Bill” Tuten, Jr., for his significant contributions to Hampton
County; and
Whereas, born in Atlanta, Georgia, on May 13, 1946, Bill is the
son of Colonel Wilson Parker “Red” Tuten, Sr., and Elizabeth Ann
“Libby” Upshaw Tuten; and
Whereas, on November 22, 1979, he married the love of his life
Jane Tuten. Their life together has been blessed with two cherished
daughters, Katie and Rebecca; and
Whereas, Bill’s career led him to the Air Force and later to
teach at Estill High School in Hampton County and Jackson High
School in Aiken County; and
Whereas, following in his father’s footsteps, Bill, on August 5,
1981, became the Hampton County Treasurer. He has worked diligently
in this role and will continue to do so until his retirement on
June 30, 2017; and
Whereas, Hampton County has benefitted under the expertise of
Bill these past thirtysix years. He will be sorely missed; and
Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of
Representatives are grateful for the years of dedication that Bill
has devoted to Hampton County and wish him many years of enjoyment
in his wellearned retirement. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
That the members of the House of Representatives of South
Carolina, by this resolution, recognize and honor William Parker
Tuten, Jr., upon the occasion of his retirement after thirtysix
years of outstanding service and wish him continued success and
happiness in all his future endeavors.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be
presented to William Parker “Bill” Tuten, Jr.
