A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO EXPRESS SINCERE GRATITUDE TO LISA LACKOVIC ESKEW FOR HER EXCELLENT SERVICE AS COMMUNICATIONS DIRECTOR OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES REPUBLICAN CAUCUS AND TO EXTEND BEST WISHES ON THE OCCASION OF HER DEPARTURE FROM THE PALMETTO STATE TO RELOCATE IN AUSTIN, TEXAS.

Whereas, since joining the House Republican Caucus as Communications Director in March of 1999, Lisa Lackovic Eskew has been an important and efficient team player to the members of the caucus, her associates, and other staff employed by the General Assembly; and

Whereas, the peripatetic Lisa was born in Santa Barbara, California, lived in Arizona, Illinois, Kansas, and Indiana prior to her move to the Palmetto State, and prepares to make her new home in Texas; and

Whereas, in 1990, Lisa graduated from Mount Vernon College in Washington, D.C. earning a Bachelor of Arts Degree with a double major in U.S. Policy and Politics and International Relations. At graduation, she received departmental honors and the Award for Excellence in Political and Social Science; and

Whereas, following graduation, she joined the National Governors’ Association managing the activities of the Office of the Executive Director. In recognition of Lisa’s strong and savvy media relations qualities, she was promoted to serve as the association’s spokesperson in the Office of Public Affairs a position she held from 1992 until 1995; and

Whereas, Lisa left Washington in 1995 and moved to Columbia to be nearer to her future husband, Tucker Eskew. Shortly after her arrival, she became associated with the Newman Saylor & Gregory Advertising Agency. In 1997, she was named the Coordinator of South Carolina WORKS in the Office of the Governor; and

Whereas, since taking over the duties of Communications Director of the House of Representatives Republican Caucus, Lisa’s quick wit, charming persuasion, and intrepid honesty have been unsurpassed it is a foregone conclusion that she will immediately gain an advantage over her audience; and

Whereas, her succinct briefings have become legendary for their brevity without wasting one word or belaboring one point; and

Whereas, she and her husband, Tucker, are expecting their first child in August. We wish Lisa and new baby the best of health and all the happiness that life can bring; and

Whereas, Lisa’s unyielding loyalty, masterful abilities, and infectious spirit are a personal loss to the Republican Caucus. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That sincere gratitude is expressed to Lisa Lackovic Eskew for her excellent service as Communications Director of the South Carolina House of Representatives Republican Caucus and best wishes extended on the occasion of her departure from the Palmetto State to relocate in Austin, Texas.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Lisa Lackovic Eskew.
