Summary
House Concurrent Resolution 37 recognizing the life and public service of Andrew "Andy" Bromeland was approved by the Senate Rules Committee and moved to the floor with a do-pass recommendation. Senators delivered tributes citing his civic work and community programs.
Chair Jama opened a public hearing on House Concurrent Resolution 37, which recognizes Andrew ("Andy") Bromeland (1948–2024) for his service to Oregon.
Senator Deb Patterson testified in support and summarized Bromeland's biography: born April 22, 1948, in Blue Earth, Minnesota; a CPA who worked at Albany General Hospital and the Secretary of State’s audits division for 31 years; longtime civic volunteer who chaired neighborhood and school committees, and created the Marion County "neighbor to neighbor" program. Patterson described Bromeland as a calm and steady public servant who died Sept. 21, 2024, after a battle with melanoma.
Additional testimony referenced Bromeland’s neighborhood association leadership and other local civic work. The committee moved HCR 37 to the floor with a do-pass recommendation. A roll call recorded the motion: Senator Golden — Aye; Senator Manning — Aye; Senator Thacker — Aye; Vice Chair Bonham — Aye; Chair Johnson — Aye. The motion passed and Senator Patz was named carrier for the measure.
The committee then closed the public hearing and the subsequent work session.
