Whereas, he and his wife Ann Brown Bailey are the proud parents of five children and have seven grandchildren; and

Whereas, a graduate of Lee Institute, Mr. Bailey currently is chairman of the Dorchester County Council and serves on the county council's Agenda and Rules Committee, Audit Committee, Budget, Finance and Purchasing Committee, Public Safety, Health and Human Services Committee, and Water and Sewer Committee; and

Whereas, Chairman Bailey served as a member of the South Carolina House of Representatives for twenty years; and

Whereas, he is a member of the Greater Summerville/Dorchester County Chamber of Commerce, Tri-County Chamber of Commerce, St. George Lions Club, St. George Rotary Club, St. George Businessman's Club, and is a Mason and Shriner; and

Whereas, he has been bestowed numerous recognitions and awards, including an Honorary Doctorate degree from the College of Charleston, and the Order of the Palmetto, the state's highest civilian honor; and

Whereas, it would be fitting and proper to recognize the many accomplishments of this son of the Palmetto State by having a highway interchange in Dorchester County named in his honor. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate, the House of Representatives concurring:
