Honoring Harold Bozeman for his service to the State of Ohio.

WHEREAS, The members of the Senate of the 136th General Assembly of Ohio are pleased to pay tribute to Harold Bozeman on the memorable occasion of his retirement from the Ohio Legislative Service Commission, June 30, 2025; and

WHEREAS, Harold Bozeman’s sterling reputation and dedication to public service have been a source of pride throughout the whole of his thirty-eight-year tenure with our state. Commencing his career with the Ohio House of Representatives in 1987, he served as a trusted sergeant-at-arms for Ohio’s iconic speakers Vern Riffe and JoAnn Davidson, and he continued to set himself apart as a consummate professional and an asset to our state’s legislative endeavors when he joined the Ohio Legislative Service Commission in 2000. Indeed, he has been celebrated for being an earnest supporter of Ohio and its elected officials; and

WHEREAS, Harold Bozeman has been one of the Ohio Legislative Service Commission’s most capable ambassadors, and by giving graciously of his time, skill, and expertise, he has demonstrated a praiseworthy commitment to the success of the agency as well as to the effectiveness of the Ohio General Assembly; and

WHEREAS, Harold Bozeman’s expansive professional endeavors have been instrumental to the Ohio Legislative Service Commission, to the Ohio General Assembly, and to the public-at-large, but most of all, he has been greatly admired by his colleagues and all those who have had the pleasure of working with him. Throughout his distinguished career, he has embodied the tenets of dependability, sincerity, and altruism that have benefited his peers and his fellow citizens, and his exemplary work ethic has become his enduring legacy; therefore be it

RESOLVED, That we, the members of the Senate of the 136th General Assembly of Ohio, in adopting this Resolution, extend a heartfelt salute to Harold Bozeman, a fine Ohioan, and offer best wishes for a happy, healthy retirement; and be it further

RESOLVED, That the Clerk of the Senate transmit a duly authenticated copy of this Resolution to Harold Bozeman.
