A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

CONGRATULATING AND COMMENDING CLARENDON MEMORIAL HOSPITAL ON ITS FORTIETH ANNIVERSARY OF OUTSTANDING AND DEDICATED MEDICAL SERVICE.

Whereas, the Clarendon Hospital District was created in 1947 by act of the General Assembly, providing for a board of trustees and vesting in the board the authority to acquire a site for, and to build, Clarendon Memorial Hospital (CMH); and

Whereas, construction of CMH began in 1948, and in 1951 the hospital, which was named for the men and women from Clarendon County who served their country in the armed forces, opened its doors; and

Whereas, in the succeeding four decades CMH has grown significantly, has continued to offer better and more up-to-date medical services, and has had a tremendous impact on the quality of everyday life in Clarendon County; and

Whereas, the members of the board of trustees of the hospital, who have provided excellent guidance and direction, include the following: Mr. Eddie Stuckey (chairman); Dr. Clarence E. Coker, Jr. (vice-chairman); Dr. Larry D. Cantey; Mrs. Cheryl Wingard; Mr. Norman McFaddin; Mr. Tarleton Way; Mr. Herb Hilliard; Mr. Al Young; and Mr. Leroy Phillips; and

Whereas, the success of CMH is due also to the outstanding efforts of Mr. Edward R. Frye, Jr. (administrator); Mr. Charles Hester (assistant administrator); Ms. Catherine T. Kirkpatrick (social services and public relations director); and the many other dedicated employees of CMH; and

Whereas, the fortieth anniversary of CMH (1951-1991) is truly a reason for joyous and thankful celebration and is an occasion greatly deserving of recognition. Now, therefore,

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

That the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina, by this resolution, congratulates and commends Clarendon Memorial Hospital on its fortieth anniversary of outstanding and dedicated medical service.
