In memory of David Lee Wycuff.

WHEREAS, The members of the Senate of the 136th General Assembly of Ohio were deeply saddened to learn of the death of David Lee Wycuff and extend our heartfelt condolences to his family and friends; and

WHEREAS, Dave Wycuff left an indelible impression on the people whose lives he touched, and he will be remembered as a spirited individual who contributed immeasurably to the world around him. Among his endeavors, he retired from the State of Ohio as a manager of state-owned buildings, including contributing to the restoration and overseeing maintenance of the Ohio Statehouse, and he was a member of Hilock Fellowship Church, where he was a trustee and music minister, and a bass guitar player with such gospel music groups as The Heaven Bound Singers, One Way Gospel Singers, and Brothers of the Cross; and

WHEREAS, Dave Wycuff’s regard for improving the quality of life in our society was clearly evident in his personal sacrifices of time and effort to his family, friends, and community. Giving generously of his energy and abilities in all of his endeavors, he displayed exceptional concern and insight, and his absence will be keenly felt; and

WHEREAS, A devoted husband to his wife, Linda, and a loving father to his children, Megan and Zach, Dave Wycuff always used his talents to the benefit of others, and the laurels of his life stand as a tribute not only to him but also to those he left behind. Although the void his death has created can never be filled, the legacy of care and commitment he established will surely live on. The world is a richer place for his having been in it, and he will be sorely missed; therefore be it

RESOLVED, That we, the members of the Senate of the 136th General Assembly of Ohio, in adopting this Resolution, express a profound sense of loss and sincere regret at the death of David Lee Wycuff and, in so doing, pay tribute to the memory of a truly unique man; and be it further

RESOLVED, That the Clerk of the Senate transmit a duly authenticated copy of this Resolution to the family of David Lee Wycuff.
