Whereas, deeply saddened at the news, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives have learned of the death of Evelyn Black of Moore on August 24, 2012; and

Whereas, a native of Spartanburg County, Evelyn Black was born the daughter of Virginia Granger Black and the late Reverend David Black, Sr.; and

Whereas, in preparation for her career, Ms. Black earned a bachelor's degree in education from Benedict College, a master's degree from the University of South Carolina, and an educational specialist degree from Converse College. She taught business education at the South Carolina School for the Deaf and the Blind, retiring after more than thirty-five years of service; and

Whereas, a member of Monks Grove Baptist Church, Evelyn Black served as youth director for the Tyger River Baptist Association and secretary for the Congress of Christian Education; and

Whereas, Ms. Black devoted her career to helping students earn their education. To memorialize her life's work, the Evelyn Black Life Scholarship is being established and will be awarded to three graduating high school seniors within the Tyger River Baptist Association Congress of Christian Education; and

Whereas, she leaves to cherish her memory her mother, Virginia Granger Black; her daughter, Shaneka Lashawn Black; her brother, David Lee Black; her sister, Jenelle Dean; her niece reared in the home, Ebony Black; and a host of other family members 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 death of Evelyn Black of Moore and extend the deepest sympathy to her family and many friends.
