A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO EXPRESS THE PROFOUND SORROW OF THE MEMBERS OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES UPON THE PASSING OF MATTIE E. LEGRANT OF BISHOPVILLE, AND TO EXTEND THE DEEPEST SYMPATHY TO HER FAMILY AND MANY FRIENDS.

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives were deeply saddened to learn of the death of Mattie E. LeGrant of Bishopville on January 30, 2010; and

Whereas, a native of Lee County, Mattie LeGrant was born December 21, 1925, to William and Mattie Gaskins Jenkins and was a graduate of Mount Pleasant High School in Elliott; and

Whereas, after eighteen years of dedicated service, she retired from the Lee County public-school system; and

Whereas, Mrs. LeGrant believed in personal involvement with her community and committed herself to its service in various ways. She was a member of Bethesda Missionary Baptist Church, where she served faithfully until death, for many years counting among her duties the offices of deaconess, church clerk, and treasurer of the Sunday School. She was also Mother of the Church; and

Whereas, in addition, she was a past matron of her chapter of the Order of the Eastern Star and a member of the NAACP, National Council of Negro Women, and the South Carolina Retired Educators Association; and

Whereas, she leaves to cherish her memory son Sammie James LeGrant; daughters Mildred Mills, Deloris LeGrant, and Rochell Jenkins; nine grandchildren; eight great-grandchildren; and a host of other relatives and friends. She will be greatly missed. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, express their profound sorrow upon the passing of Mattie E. LeGrant of Bishopville, and extend the deepest sympathy to her family and many friends.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to Sammie James LeGrant for the family.
