A RESOLUTION
In memory of Terry Blair.

       WHEREAS,  The members of the House of Representatives of the 130th General Assembly of Ohio were deeply saddened to learn of the death of Terry Blair and extend our heartfelt condolences to his family and friends; and

       WHEREAS,  Terry Blair 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 trustee for Washington Township for twenty-one years, he was serving his third term as a member of the Ohio House of Representatives, and he most recently held the post of chairman of the State and Local Government Committee. The chief financial officer for Buckeye Pools, he was also active with such organizations as the Notre Dame Alumni Club of Dayton, the Ohio Harness Horsemen's Association, the Ohio Thoroughbred Breeders and Owners, the American Business Club of Dayton, the Noon Optimist Club of Centerville, and Church of the Incarnation; and 

       WHEREAS,  Terry Blair'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 loving husband to his wife, Judy, a devoted father to his four children, and the proud grandfather of nine grandchildren, Terry Blair 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 House of Representatives of the 130th General Assembly of Ohio, in adopting this Resolution, express a profound sense of loss and sincere regret at the death of Terry Blair and, in so doing, pay tribute to the memory of a truly unique individual; and be it further

       RESOLVED,  That the Clerk of the House of Representatives transmit a duly authenticated copy of this Resolution to the family of Terry Blair.
