TO EXPRESS THE PROFOUND SORROW OF THE MEMBERS OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES UPON THE DEATH OF CLAUDIA CRAFT JORDAN OF SUMTER AND TO EXTEND THE DEEPEST SYMPATHY TO HER FAMILY AND MANY FRIENDS.
Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives were deeply saddened to learn of the death of Claudia Craft Jordan of Sumter on Thursday, April 10, 2014, at the venerable age of eighty-one; and
Whereas, born in Sumter, she was a daughter of Harvey and Margaret Troublefield Craft and the widow of Dr. Charles Frank Jordan, Jr.; and
Whereas, as a registered nurse by profession, Mrs. Jordan worked at Tuomey Hospital for fifteen years, as well as at the Sumter Mental Health Center; and
Whereas, this woman of faith served her God as a member of Grace Baptist Church; and
Whereas, one of the oldest members of the Sumter AA group, she recently celebrated forty years of sobriety and was instrumental in helping others with their struggles; and
Whereas, Mrs. Jordan leaves to cherish her memory her children, Melvin E. Brown, Jr., John Morgan Brown, Margaret Ann Baker, Ruth Jennings Latour, James A. Jordan, and Sandy Pillar; ten grandchildren; nine great-grandchildren; one great-great-grandchild; 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 Claudia Craft Jordan of Sumter and extend the deepest sympathy to her family and many friends.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be provided to Melvin E. Brown, Jr., for the family.
