The House Concurrent Resolution congratulates McNeil & Reedy, a mens clothing retailer in Rutland City, on reaching the milestone of 70 years in business. Founded on April 16, 1956, by James F. McNeil and George Reedy, the store initially specialized in high-quality mens suits and has since evolved into a full-service mens clothing store, becoming the largest provider of suit and tuxedo rentals in Vermont. The store has successfully navigated changes in the retail landscape, including the rise of suburban malls and online shopping, thanks to its commitment to expert tailoring and personalized customer service.

The resolution highlights the legacy of the McNeil family, with James McNeil's twin sons, Jim and John, continuing the business, and now Casey McNeil leading the third generation. Under Casey's management, the store has undergone significant enhancements, including redesigning the space, expanding the tailoring department, and introducing new product lines. The resolution expresses the General Assembly's appreciation for McNeil & Reedy's contributions to the community and directs the Secretary of State to send a copy of the resolution to the store.
