Joseph E. Baird, of Bowling Green, who retires as assistant secretary of state March 1, after more than six years active service in that position, was highly praised for his services to the state, in a resolution adopted by the House.
Baird leaves the statehouse to become congressman from the 12th Ohio District, having been elected to that office last November.
