TED FELDER
(Mr. WILSON of South Carolina asked and was given permission to
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. WILSON of South Carolina. Mr. Speaker, last month the low country
director of the office of South Carolina's Second Congressional
District departed. Ted Felder, who has served the Second District since
my election in 2001, has been named Economic Development Director for
the City of Hardeeville, which will be one of the fastest growing
cities in America in the next decade.
As a native of St. Matthews, Ted graduated from the University of
South Carolina. He and his wife, Beth, have a 9-month-old son, John
Goodwin. As a longtime friend of Ted's parents, John and Jane Felder, I
have known Ted since he was a small child. I have also had the honor of
serving with John in the general assembly.
I appreciate Ted's dedication to the low country and the needs of its
constituents. I know he will bring the same commitment to the residents
of Hardeeville. He has trained his successor, Allen Aimar, to be
accessible and accountable, with office manager Deanna Conners.
In conclusion, God bless our troops. We will never forget September
11. Our prayers are with Congressman Charlie Norwood, his wife, Gloria,
and his family.
