The Speaker, on behalf of the entire membership of the House of Representatives, offered the following resolution:
House Resolution No. 357.
A resolution of tribute for the Honorable Marie Donigan.
Whereas, It is with great appreciation for her service to the people of the Twenty-sixth House District and the entire state that we join together to thank the Honorable Marie Donigan. She brought a wealth of experience in local government and civic memberships to Lansing, where she served three terms in the House of Representatives; and
Whereas, Marie Donigan, a lifelong resident of Royal Oak, was educated at the University of Pennsylvania and Western Michigan University. She worked in the private sector for several years and gained experience on the Royal Oak City Commission and the Farmington Hills Department of Planning and Community Development; and
Whereas, Her experience with the business community and the workings of local government served Representative Donigan and the legislative process well throughout her three terms, beginning with her election in 2004. Her background prepared her to work on issues of tremendous importance to her own community and the entire state, such as education, health care, public transit, and improving the economy. Representative Donigan chaired the Intergovernmental and Regional Affairs Committee, and was an invaluable member of several other appropriations and policy committees during her tenure. We are grateful for her service; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we honor Representative Marie Donigan as she concludes her service with the Michigan House of Representatives; and be it further
Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to Representative Donigan as evidence of our esteem and best wishes for the future.
