Whereas, from a child, Ms. Scott has loved helping people, so in 1973, she began caring for people as a nursing assistant at St. Frances during their time of suffering. She worked there for five decades and was praised as a steady and compassionate caregiver who uplifted both patients and colleagues with an ever-present smile; and
Whereas, coworkers remember her as the ultimate teammate. Never did she utter the words, "it is not my job" or "let me find somebody else to do that"; instead, she was always ready to jump right in and help; and
Whereas, as a single mother, she reared two fine sons, retired United States Army Command Sergeant Major Ben Scott and United States Senator Tim Scott from South Carolina; and
Whereas, Ms. Scott's ability to make a difference led her to found the Raising Up the Lowcountry Foundation, an organization dedicated to helping single mothers make meaningful changes that will make a difference in their lives, homes, neighborhoods, the next generation, and the world; and
Whereas, Raising Up the Lowcountry provides short-term relief to single mothers that leads to long-term independence and offers instruction that teaches them essential life skills, such as budgeting, cooking, wellness, and work ethic; and
Whereas, grateful for
her many years of meaningful service to Bon Secours St. Francis Hospital, the
South Carolina House of Representatives takes great pleasure in extending best
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
That the members of the
South Carolina House of Representatives,
by this resolution, recognize and honor Frances Scott, a nursing assistant at
Bon Secours St. Francis Hospital, upon the occasion of her retirement after fifty
years of exemplary service, and
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Frances Scott. ----XX---- This web page was last updated on March 8, 2023 at 11:02 AM |
