TO EXPRESS THE PROFOUND SORROW OF THE MEMBERS OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES UPON THE DEATH OF ANNIE MAE SAVAGE WRIGHT OF BONNEAU AND TO EXTEND THE DEEPEST SYMPATHY TO HER FAMILY AND MANY FRIENDS.
Whereas, deeply saddened at the news, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives have learned of the death of Annie Mae Savage Wright of Bonneau on March 9, 2013, at the venerable age of seventy-nine; and
Whereas, as a proud citizen of Berkeley County, Annie Mae Savage Wright was a woman who took her civic duties seriously. She was a lifelong member of the Berkeley Democratic Party, a precinct officer, and community activist; and
Whereas, Mrs. Wright, a woman of faith, served as a Sunday School teacher for more than forty years and was a faithful member of the African Methodist Episcopal Church and its affiliations. She served as a member of the steward board and president of the senior choir; and
Whereas, she was also a member of St. Stephen Chapter No. 158, Order of the Eastern Star, and a "Mother of the Community"; and
Whereas, preceded in death by her beloved husband, Leroy Wright, Annie Mae Savage Wright leaves to cherish her memory her children, Doris Ann McHoney, Margaret Singleton, Betty Smalls, Rose Davis, Gail Nelson, Henry Wright, Charles Wright, and Roscoe Wright; a step-daughter, Lottie Harris; thirty-six grandchildren; fifty-four great-grandchildren; five great-great-grandchildren; and a host of other family members and friends. She will be 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 Annie Mae Savage Wright of Bonneau and extend the deepest sympathy to her family and many friends.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be provided to Doris Ann McHoney for the family.
