   05/18/11  House  Introduced and adopted (House Journal-page 75)

TO EXPRESS SINCERE SORROW OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES UPON THE PASSING OF MARY T. ZINNERMAN OF JASPER COUNTY, AND TO EXTEND DEEPEST SYMPATHY TO HER LARGE AND LOVING FAMILY AND TO HER MANY FRIENDS.

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives were saddened to learn of the death of former educator Mary T. Zinnerman at the age of eighty-eight on May 12, 2011; and

Whereas, born in Columbia on August 1, 1922, Mary Zinnerman was the daughter of the late Reverend William Samuel and Mary Elise Senior Trezevant, and she graduated from Booker T. Washington High School in 1940; and

Whereas, she earned a bachelor of science from Allen University in 1944 and married her beloved husband, the late Willie Zinnerman, the same year; and

Whereas, together they raised five fine children: Theodora Z. Wright, Jannette Z. Scott, Esther E. Zinnerman, Willie T. Zinnerman, and Carolyn V. Zinnerman, all of whom completed their college education and four of whom have master's degrees. In addition, these wonderful children blessed their parents with seven grandchildren and two great-grandchildren; and

Whereas, "Ms. Mary," as she was fondly called, earned a master's degree from South Carolina State College in 1960 and made her home in Ridgeland, spending thirty-six years educating the students of Jasper County; and

Whereas, later in her life, "Ms. Mary" met and married James E. Worlds of Savannah, Georgia, who also predeceased her; and

Whereas, after accepting Jesus Christ as her personal Savior, she became a faithful member of St. John African Methodist Episcopal Church where she served as a trustee until her health failed; and

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives are grateful for the legacy of dedicated service that Mary T. Zinnerman has left and for the standard of excellence she set for all who knew and loved this remarkable lady. 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 sincere sorrow upon the passing of Mary T. Zinnerman of Jasper County, and extend their deepest sympathy to her large and loving family and many friends.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be provided to the family of Mary T. Zinnerman.
