A house RESOLUTION

TO CONGRATULATE THE HONORABLE ROY PIPKIN UPON THE 
OCCASION OF HIS RECENT RETIREMENT AS MAYOR, TO COMMEND HIM FOR HIS MANY YEARS 
OF DISTINGUISHED PUBLIC SERVICE TO THE TOWN OF JAMESTOWN AND THE STATE OF SOUTH 
CAROLINA, AND TO WISH HIM MUCH HAPPINESS AND FULFILLMENT IN THE DAYS TO COME.

Whereas, the South 
Carolina House of Representatives counts it a privilege to recognize and salute 
the Honorable Roy Pipkin upon the occasion of his recent retirement as mayor of 
the charming Town of Jamestown; and

Whereas, Mayor Pipkin's 
record attests to many years of public service, which includes thirty-seven 
years with the National Guard (his last position being chief of staff), in 
addition to his twenty-nine years of service on the Jamestown Town Council as 
mayor. January 6, 2026, marked his official retirement from that honored 
position; and

Whereas, a native of 
Jamestown with deep roots in the area, Roy Pipkin proudly served as mayor of this 
vibrant town from 1997 until his retirement, having devoted himself to 
fostering its growth and development; and

Whereas, during his 
several decades of public service, his commitment to the community shone 
through in every initiative he supported, as he continually strove to make 
Jamestown a better place for all its residents; and

Whereas, the members of 
the House are grateful for the passion, dedication, and pursuit of excellence 
this son of South Carolina has shown in serving the citizens of the Palmetto 
State, most particularly the people of Jamestown. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the 
South Carolina House of Representatives, 
by this resolution, congratulate the Honorable Roy Pipkin upon the occasion of 
his recent retirement as mayor, commend him for his many years of distinguished 
public service to the Town of Jamestown and the State of South Carolina, and 
wish him much happiness and fulfillment in the days to come.

Be it further resolved 
that a copy of this resolution be presented to the Honorable Roy Pipkin.

----XX----
