A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO EXPRESS THE PROFOUND SORROW OF THE MEMBERS OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES UPON THE PASSING OF DR. EDWIN MOORE BROGDON OF SUMTER AND TO EXTEND THE DEEPEST SYMPATHY TO HIS FAMILY AND MANY FRIENDS.

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives were deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Dr. Edwin Moore Brogdon of Sumter on January 22, 2020, at the age of almost ninety-two; and

Whereas, on May 22, 1928, Edwin and his identical twin, Albert Newton Brogdon, were born at home to William Chandler and Thelma Moore Brogdon of Sumter; and

Whereas, the young Edwin graduated from Edmunds High School and subsequently enlisted with his twin in the U.S. Army Air Corps at Shaw Field. He served in Texas, Alaska, and California, and was honorably discharged as a sergeant in 1949; and

Whereas, following his military service, Ed attended the University of South Carolina on the GI Bill, where he earned bachelor's and master's degrees in English. He later taught British and American literature at the high school and college levels in South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana, California, Indiana, and Florida, before returning to the University of South Carolina to earn a Ph.D. In 1992, Ed retired from his distinguished teaching career; and

Whereas, Ed leaves to cherish his memory his twin brother, Albert N. Brogdon; nephews Casey C. Brogdon and Vince L. Brogdon; and great-nephews Wade Brogdon, Beau Brogdon, Dylan Brogdon, and Logan Brogdon. In addition, Ed had numerous cousins in Sumter but was especially grateful for the friendship and company of Kathy McElveen, Kate Price, and Mike Watson. He will be greatly missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him. 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 passing of Dr. Edwin Moore Brogdon of Sumter and extend the deepest sympathy to his family and many friends.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Albert N. Brogdon for the family.
