Whereas, born in 1939, Queen Berry Brailey was the sixth daughter of Henry and Lucille Berry's fine family of thirteen children.

In time, she became, successively, an instructor in child development at South Carolina State University, director of South Carolina Head Start Training and Technical Assistance, director of the South Carolina State University Child Development Center, owner/director of Kid's World Learning Center, interim Head Start director for Berkeley/Charleston/Dorchester, director of the Trinity United Methodist Church Child Care Learning Center in Orangeburg, and, finally, assistant professor of early childhood education for South Carolina State University; and
Whereas, in addition, as a private consultant Ms. Brailey served as a trainer for hundreds of teachers; and
Whereas, she serves her community on the Orangeburg County First Steps Board, the South Carolina Child Abuse Steering Committee, and as director of children's ministries at Trinity United Methodist Church, where she is also a member; and
Whereas, in recognition of her spirit of excellence and dedicated service to the people of South Carolina, Ms. Brailey has been granted various honors, among them the 1989 Teacher of the Year, Family and Consumer Science, South Carolina State University. In 1974, she was named an Outstanding Young Woman of America; and
Whereas, the House of Representatives is proud to honor this truly lovely lady at the celebration of her seventy-fifth birthday, and the members join with her family and friends in congratulating her on reaching this extraordinary milestone. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, congratulate Queen Berry Brailey of Orangeburg on the occasion of her seventy-fifth birthday and wish her a joyous birthday celebration and much happiness in the days ahead.
