| WHEREAS, All those associated with the Salvation Army of Lima are to be commended for their foresight, dedication, and selfless donations of time, energy, and ability far beyond what was required or expected. These exemplary people have earned the respect and admiration of many and have set an example of concerned and responsible citizenship worthy of emulation; and |
| WHEREAS, The Salvation Army of Lima has enhanced the quality of life within the surrounding area. We are certain that as the fine individuals associated with the group maintain their dedication to service, they will continue in the tradition of excellence that has been the hallmark of the Salvation Army since its establishment; therefore be it |
| RESOLVED, That we, the members of the Senate of the 130th General Assembly of Ohio, in adopting this Resolution, congratulate the Salvation Army of Lima on its One Hundred Twenty-fifth Anniversary and extend best wishes for ongoing success; and be it further |
| RESOLVED, That the Clerk of the Senate transmit a duly authenticated copy of this Resolution to the Salvation Army of Lima. |
