A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
In memory of the Honorable Charlie Wilson.

       WHEREAS, The members of the 130th General Assembly of Ohio were deeply saddened to learn of the death of the Honorable Charlie Wilson and extend our heartfelt condolences to his family and friends; and

       WHEREAS, Charlie Wilson left an indelible impression on the people whose lives he touched, and he will be remembered as a spirited individual who contributed immeasurably to the world around him. A former United Auto Workers member employed at the Ford Automotive Plant in Lorain, he was the owner of several small businesses and the president of Wilson Funeral Homes and the Wilson Furniture Store, and he served eight years in the Ohio House of Representatives and two years in the Ohio Senate before serving two terms in the United States House of Representatives; and

       WHEREAS, Charlie Wilson's regard for improving the quality of life in our society was clearly evident in his personal sacrifices of time and effort to his family, friends, and community. Giving generously of his energy and abilities in all of his endeavors, he displayed exceptional concern and insight, and his absence will be keenly felt; and

       WHEREAS, A devoted father to his four sons and the proud grandfather of nine grandchildren, Charlie Wilson always used his talents to the benefit of others, and the laurels of his life stand as a tribute not only to him but also to those he left behind. Although the void his death has created can never be filled, the legacy of care and commitment he established will surely live on. The world is a richer place for his having been in it, and he will be sorely missed; therefore be it

       RESOLVED, That we, the members of the 130th General Assembly of Ohio, in adopting this Resolution, express a profound sense of loss and sincere regret at the death of the Honorable Charlie Wilson and, in so doing, pay tribute to the memory of a truly unique individual; and be it further

       RESOLVED, That the Clerk of the Senate transmit a duly authenticated copy of this Resolution to the family of the Honorable Charlie Wilson.
