A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO EXPRESS THE PROFOUND SORROW OF THE MEMBERS OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES UPON THE PASSING OF NATHANIEL JAMES MYERS, JR., AND TO EXTEND THEIR DEEPEST SYMPATHY TO HIS LOVING FAMILY AND HIS MANY FRIENDS.

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives were saddened to learn of the death of Nathaniel James Myers, Jr., of Kingstree on March 13, 2017, at the age of sixty-one; and

Whereas, affectionately known as "Nate", Mr. Myers was born in Georgetown on December 31, 1955, to Emily Gary Myers and the late Nathaniel Myers, Sr. He graduated from Johnson C. Smith University with a bachelor's degree and continued on to earn his master's degree at The Citadel in education administration; and

Whereas, a committed member of Nazareth AME Church, Andrews, he served as the church secretary, as well as on the steward board. He also was a member of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc., and served on the external Admissions Board of the South Carolina Governor's School for Science and Mathematics in Hartsville; and

Whereas, Mr. Myers received numerous awards throughout his lifetime and was very involved in his community. He was called on many times to help solve problems throughout the State be they political, social, or of the world of sports due to his strengths in strategic planning and human and community relations. Our beautiful State has been made better through his great works; and

Whereas, a devoted father, he leaves behind two sons, Nathaniel G. Myers III of Raleigh, North Carolina, and Michael Myers of Charleston, a stepson, Brian (Cecile) Morris, of Charlotte, North Carolina, his mother, Emily G. Myers of Kingstree, a sister JoAnn (Ed) Bowman of Goose Creek, a brother, Howard J. Myers, of Cartersville, Georgia, and a host of other relatives and friends who will cherish his memory for years to come. His legacy will live on through the people he has touched; and

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives are grateful for the life Nathaniel Myers, Jr., has led and for the example of kindness and sacrifice he set for all who knew him. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the members of the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, express their profound sorrow upon the passing of Nathaniel James Myers, Jr., and extend their deepest sympathy to his loving family and his many friends.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to the family of Nathaniel James Myers, Jr.
