Troy Johnson, Local 2021, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma: I have the honor of giving you the nomination and our unanimous choice for the Vice President, Orville A. Tate. As President Hill stated, I’d ask that all of you keep him and his family in your prayers. His father passed away at the early part of the week.

Vice-President Orville A. Tate, Jr.
7th District

[President Hill noted that Vice President Tate had left the convention to attend the funeral of his father and could not speak.]
