A resolution of tribute offered for the Honorable Mike Huckleberry.
Whereas, With great respect for his commitment to our state and its future, we commend our colleague Mike Huckleberry as he brings to a close his service to the people of the Seventieth House District throughout the Ninety-fifth Legislature. His hard work in devoting his energy to solving Michigan's problems during an era of great challenge has earned our gratitude, and we offer our best wishes to him and his family; and
Whereas, A native of Grand Rapids who studied at Grand Rapids Community College and Davenport Business College, Mike Huckleberry is a longtime resident and businessman in Greenville who has long been involved in community life. In addition to his deep personal understanding of the demands of operating a restaurant, he also has distinguished himself through local Chamber of Commerce initiatives, and he was intimately involved in the Greenville Task Force fighting to save jobs. These types of activities gave him insights into matters of concern to communities across all of Michigan; and
Whereas, During his term as a lawmaker, Representative Huckleberry worked in several public policy areas. He sought to promote the hiring of Michigan workers, sponsored incentives for renewable energy development and emerging technologies, and worked to protect senior citizens from financial exploitation. In addition, his efforts as the chair of the Agriculture Committee, as well as his contributions to the Commerce, Energy and Technology, and Tourism, Outdoor Recreation and Natural Resources Committees further reflected his value to the work of this legislative body; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we honor and thank Representative Mike Huckleberry for his service to the Ninety-fifth Legislature; and be it further
Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to Representative Huckleberry as evidence of our respect and best wishes.
