A house RESOLUTION

TO CONGRATULATE AND COMMEND TONY RANDAL VAUGHN, 
SENIOR APPLICATION SUPPORT ANALYST FOR RICHLAND COUNTY, UPON THE OCCASION OF 
HIS RECENT RETIREMENT AFTER THREE DECADES OF EXEMPLARY SERVICE AND TO WISH HIM 
CONTINUED SUCCESS AND HAPPINESS IN ALL HIS FUTURE ENDEAVORS.

Whereas, on December 
31, 2025, Tony Randal Vaughn, senior application support analyst for Richland 
County, officially retired after rendering thirty years of service to Richland 
County with consistent commitment and excellence; and

Whereas, in early 
preparation for his career, this native of Green Sea in Horry County graduated 
in 1987 from South Carolina State University, having earned a bachelor's degree 
in mathematics and computer science. That same year, he began three years of service 
as a commissioned officer with the U.S. Army, where he served with distinction 
and attained the rank of captain; and

Whereas, beyond the 
realm of government, Tony Vaughn is deeply involved in his community and 
beyond. A Richland County Little League coach for football, soccer, and 
basketball from 2000 to 2023, Tony also has served as a South Carolina high 
school football official for twelve years and as a Mid-Atlantic Eastern 
Conference football official for sixteen years. He officiated the 2009 NCAA 
Division II Football Championship game in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and was one 
of the first football officials to work with Allen University, Benedict 
College, and Edward Waters College when they renewed their football programs; 
and

Whereas, a man of 
faith, Tony serves the Lord as a member of New Ebenezer Baptist Church, where 
he is on the New Ebenezer Board of Deacons. In his spare time, he relishes 
gardening and baking desserts; and

Whereas, at home, he 
enjoys the role of husband to his lovely wife of sixteen years, Andrea Vaughn. 
Moreover, he is the proud father of three sons, Antonio, Terrell, and Tony Jr., 
as well as the delighted grandfather of two charming girls, Jasmine and Jade; 
and

Whereas, to recognize 
Tony Vaughn for his many years of service to Richland County, his colleagues 
hosted a retirement celebration in his honor on December 17, 2025; and

Whereas, the long and 
enduring service Tony Vaughn has rendered to this great State, most 
particularly to Richland County, is worthy of praise. It is a great pleasure to 
salute him on his outstanding record and to wish him well as he enjoys a 
well-deserved retirement. 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 Tony Randal Vaughn, senior 
application support analyst for Richland County, upon the occasion of his recent 
retirement after three decades of exemplary 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 Tony Randal Vaughn.
