A RESOLUTION


Expressing regret at the passing of Myron Roy Blee; and for other purposes.

WHEREAS, on April 14, 2007, the United States lost one of its finest and most distinguished citizens with the passing of Myron Roy Blee; and

WHEREAS, he diligently and conscientiously devoted innumerable hours of his time, talents, and energy toward the betterment of his community and state as evidenced dramatically by his many years of outstanding service as a college professor and public education administrator; and

WHEREAS, he served his country with honor and distinction as a member of the United States Navy during the Second World War; and

WHEREAS, his significant organizational and leadership talents, his remarkable patience and diplomacy, his keen sense of vision, and his sensitivity to the needs of the citizens of his community earned him the respect and admiration of his colleagues and associates; and

WHEREAS, this distinguished man gave inspiration to many through his high ideals, morals, and deep concern for his fellow citizens and he possessed the vast wisdom which only comes through experience and the strength of character which is achieved through overcoming the many challenges of life; and

WHEREAS, he was a person of magnanimous strengths with an unimpeachable reputation for integrity, intelligence, fairness, and kindness and, by the example he made of his life, he made this world a better place in which to live; and

WHEREAS, he was the beloved father of Honorable Kathy Ashe and the devoted grandfather of Robbie Ashe and Sally Ashe Wood; and the passing of this generous, kind, and loving man leaves an unfillable void in the hearts, lives, and spirits of his family and friends.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES that the members of this body express their deepest and most sincere regret at the passing of Myron Roy Blee.
