COMMITTEE REPORT

H. 5352
Introduced by Reps. Hayes, Clemmons, George, H.A. Crawford, Ryhal, Brannon, Anderson, Hardee, Edge, Goldfinch and Hardwick
S. Printed 6/4/14--H.
Read the first time June 3, 2014.
To whom was referred a Concurrent Resolution (H. 5352) to request that the Department of Transportation name South Carolina Highway 319 in Horry County "Representative Liston Barfield Highway" and erect appropriate markers, etc., respectfully
That they have duly and carefully considered the same and recommend that the same do pass:
DON C. BOWEN for Committee.
TO REQUEST THAT THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION NAME SOUTH CAROLINA HIGHWAY 319 IN HORRY COUNTY "REPRESENTATIVE LISTON BARFIELD HIGHWAY" AND ERECT APPROPRIATE MARKERS OR SIGNS ALONG THIS HIGHWAY THAT CONTAIN THIS DESIGNATION.
Whereas, the Honorable Liston D. Barfield of Horry County for twenty-three years has loyally represented the citizens of House District 58 in the House of Representatives of this great State; and
Whereas, in preparation for his life's work, Liston Barfield earned his bachelor's degree in 1975 at Coastal Carolina University and his master's degree from Webster University in 1983. He has also been awarded honorary doctorates from Francis Marion University (2005) and Coastal Carolina University (2007). A resident of Aynor, he serves his area as an independent insurance agent and real estate broker; and
Whereas, heeding the call of his country, the young Liston Barfield served in the U.S. Army for six years. As a veteran of the Vietnam War, he is a member of the Veterans Monument Committee; and
Whereas, Representative Barfield has always believed strongly in personal involvement with his community, and his convictions have led him to serve that community and the broader community of South Carolina and beyond in numerous capacities. These include membership in the Aynor Lions Club, South Carolina Commission on International Cooperation and Agreements, and American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) Board of Directors. He also serves as national secretary for ALEC and in 2005 was named Legislator of the Year for that organization; and
Whereas, in recognition of his spirit of excellence and dedicated service to the people of South Carolina, Liston Barfield has been granted various additional honors, as well, among them the revered Coastal Carolina University Founders Medallion (2005) and Friend of Foreign Service Medal (presented by the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Taiwan, 2005); and
Whereas, this man of faith, who enjoys participation in his local prayer center, finds strength for the accomplishment of his duties in the firm support of his family. Married to the former Norma Jean Allen since 1967, he is the proud father of two sons, James Douglas and Brett Allen; and
Whereas, as a South Carolina House member, Representative Barfield has served with distinction on the Invitations and Memorial Resolutions Committee (chairman) and Ways and Means Committee; and
Whereas, it would be fitting and proper to recognize Representative Barfield's many years of dedicated service to the people of this State by naming South Carolina Highway 319 in Horry County in his honor. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:
That the members of the General Assembly request that the Department of Transportation name South Carolina Highway 319 in Horry County "Representative Liston Barfield Highway" and erect appropriate markers or signs along this highway that contain this designation.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the Department of Transportation.
