5/10/2022

TO CONGRATULATE LIEUTENANT LONNIE "TERRY" VINESETT OF THE YORK COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE UPON THE OCCASION OF HIS RETIREMENT, TO COMMEND HIM FOR HIS MANY YEARS OF DEDICATED SERVICE, AND TO WISH HIM MUCH HAPPINESS AND FULFILLMENT IN ALL HIS FUTURE ENDEAVORS.

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives are pleased to learn that Lieutenant Lonnie "Terry" Vinesett of the York County Sheriff's Office will begin a well-deserved retirement on July 4, 2022, after a quarter century of outstanding service; and

Whereas, passionate about his career in law enforcement, Terry Vinesett began that career on June 9, 1997, when he took up his duties with the Lancaster County Sheriff's Office. On September 7, 1999, he joined the York County Sheriff's Office, and during his tenure there he has served as a patrol officer, member of the Traffic Enforcement Unit, patrol sergeant (shift supervisor), and lieutenant over the Court Security Unit; and

Whereas, in his current post as supervisor of the Court Security Unit, Lieutenant Vinesett oversees three sergeants and twenty additional sworn officers who are tasked with protecting all court proceedings in York County; and

Whereas, Terry Vinesett comes by his love for law enforcement naturally. In 2007, his father retired as a captain with more than twenty-six years of service from the Ft. Mill Police Department. Terry followed in his father's footsteps; and

Whereas, in addition, Terry Vinesett served as a police cadet for the Ft. Mill Police Department for seven years, beginning on his fourteenth birthday and continuing until he "aged out" on his twenty-first birthday; and

Whereas, on the occasion of his retirement, Lieutenant Vinesett's colleagues will gather to honor him at a celebratory event to be held June 3, 2022; and

Whereas, diligent and dedicated, Lieutenant Vinesett has crafted a legacy of excellence, honor, and leadership for the next generation of law enforcement officers of this great State, most particularly those of York County. Grateful for this worthy legacy, the House of Representatives takes great pleasure in wishing him all the best 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:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, congratulate Lieutenant Lonnie "Terry" Vinesett of the York County Sheriff's Office upon the occasion of his retirement, commend him for his many years of dedicated service, and wish him much happiness and fulfillment in all his future endeavors.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Lieutenant Terry Vinesett.
