A SENATE RESOLUTION

TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR SANDRA W. HAYNES, UPON THE OCCASION OF HER RETIREMENT AFTER MORE THAN FORTY YEARS OF OUTSTANDING SERVICE IN THE FIELD OF NURSING, AND TO WISH HER CONTINUED SUCCESS AND HAPPINESS IN ALL HER FUTURE ENDEAVORS.

Whereas, the members of the Senate of the State of South Carolina are pleased to pause in their deliberations to express their gratitude to Sandra W. Haynes for her dedicated contributions to the medical profession in the Palmetto State as she begins her well-deserved retirement on May 10, 2013; and

Whereas, the oldest of three daughters born to the late John K. Whitney and Naomi Fields, Sandra Haynes attended Burke High School and obtained her license as a cosmetologist after graduating with an apprenticeship in cosmetology; and

Whereas, having always admired her mother's profession as a nurse, she earned a degree as a licensed practical nurse (LPN) from Roper's Practical Nursing School and began her career in nursing at Roper Hospital; and

Whereas, she later completed a degree at the Baptist College in Charleston, now Charleston Southern University, to become a Registered Nurse (RN); and

Whereas, although Ms. Haynes has worked in many areas of nursing over her career, she most enjoys the challenging work of caring for the vital and urgent needs of patients in the emergency room; and

Whereas, in one of her proudest moments, her peers recognized her as RN of the Year, and WCSC-TV's legendary host Charlie Hall of Channel 5 awarded her the original Live 5 pin for this accomplishment; and

Whereas, Sandra Haynes was baptized at Holy Cross Church and attended Nichols Chapel African Methodist Episcopal Church where she and her beloved husband, Alonzo Haynes, were married; and

Whereas, now as a member of Ebenezer African Methodist Episcopal Church, she serves in the Women's Missionary Society, Flossie Women's Unit, and has recently joined the Stewardess Board; and

Whereas, together with Alonzo, she reared four fine children: Alonzo Michael, Karen, Sheryl, and Terri. They have abundantly blessed her with nine adoring grandchildren; and

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina Senate are grateful for the years of dedication that Sandra Haynes has devoted to nursing and wish her many years of enjoyment in her favorite pastimes of reading, traveling, and helping other people in her well-earned retirement. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate:

That the members of the Senate of the State of South Carolina, by this resolution, recognize and honor Sandra W. Haynes, upon the occasion of her retirement after more than forty years of outstanding service in the field of nursing, and wish her continued success and happiness in all her future endeavors.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Sandra W. Haynes.
