I see you were born in 1972, the year I graduated from Ohio University and married my wife of 44 years. That is appropriate, since my generation demanded a chance to use its youthful energy back in the 1970's. You'll do great. My concern? This is the first time in years that I have been proud of my Governor. I have only lived in SC for 3 years, spending the previous 23 years "up north" in NC. I am so ashamed of the way that state's government is moving. My concern is that now a 69-year-old Donald Trump endorser will become our Governor. I will give the Lt Gov my support as long as he deserves it, but I am worried. I do hope that your appointment is not a short-lived assignment with the only real goal being to get another old white man into the Governor's seat. And I say that as an old (66) white man. I hope that strong leaders of both parties can guide the country through this stretch without letting our long-simmering hatreds and fears turn our country in a dark direction. You have been a great Governor who showed empathy and good judgement, something which every state deserves. SC has been lucky to have you.
