Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives has learned that Robert N. Boykin, Jr., NBSC executive vice president and Sumter regional market president, will retire on June 30, 2014, from a distinguished career at NBSC spanning four and a half decades; and

In addition, he studied at the American Bankers Association's National Installment Credit School and Stonier Graduate School of Banking at the University of Delaware and at the South Carolina Banker's School at the University of South Carolina College of Business Administration and the South Carolina Banker's Association; and

Whereas, Bobby Boykin has always believed strongly in personal involvement with his community, and his convictions have led him to serve that community in numerous capacities. Presently, these include service as a board member of Sumter Smarter Growth Initiative, USC--Sumter Partnership, and Santee Lynches Regional Development Corporation. He is a member of the Greater Sumter Chamber of Commerce, South Carolina Chamber of Commerce, Shaw-Sumter Community Council, and Bethlehem United Methodist Church, where he is Chairman of the Administrative Board; and

Whereas, the House of Representatives, grateful for the legacy of consistent commitment and excellence Mr. Boykin has bestowed on this great State, takes great pleasure in wishing him well as he enters retirement and trusts he will find much enjoyment in the more leisurely pace of the days ahead. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
