In memory of James W. "Bill" Collins.
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE STATE OF OHIO:
| WHEREAS, The members of the House of Representatives of the 128th General Assembly of Ohio were deeply saddened to learn of the death of James W. "Bill" Collins and extend our heartfelt condolences to his family and friends; and |
| WHEREAS, Bill Collins 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 representative in the Ohio General Assembly, he was a U.S. Army Air Corps veteran of World War II and the Korean War, the owner and operator of the Collins Packing and Highlander Ford companies, a past exalted ruler of the local Elks lodge, and a member of the local Eagles aerie and St. Benignus Catholic Church; and |
| WHEREAS, Bill Collins' 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, he displayed exceptional concern and insight, and his absence will be keenly felt; and |
| WHEREAS, A loving husband to his wife, the late Maxine, a devoted father to his three children, William, Connie, and Carol, and the proud grandfather of five grandchildren, ten great-grandchildren, and two
great-great-grandchildren, Bill Collins 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 128th General Assembly of Ohio, in adopting this Resolution, express a profound sense of loss and sincere regret at the death of James W. "Bill" Collins 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 James W. "Bill" Collins. |
