Whereas, Jacqueline "JacAdelle" Blackwell Beasley, mother of former South Carolina Governor, David M. Beasley, died Saturday, January 8, 2000, at a Florence hospital following an extended illness; and

Whereas, Mrs. Beasley was born seventy years ago in Florence County to the late Henry J. and Jacqueline Anderson Blackwell; and

Whereas, she graduated from Florence High School, Peace Junior College in Raleigh, North Carolina, and Flora McDonald College in Red Springs, North Carolina; and

Whereas, she used her educational training and her natural compassion to serve the children of South Carolina all her working life, first as an employee of the Department of Social Services and later as a teacher at Lamar High School in Darlington County; and

Whereas, she was the proud mother of three sons, former Governor Beasley, Rick L. Beasley, and H. Wesley Beasley, and the doting grandmother to ten grandchildren; and

Whereas, the former Governor said of her, "She was more than just a warm and loving mother. She was one of the most remarkable women I have ever met. She spent her life trying to help children"; and

Whereas, she is also survived by a sister, Verida Marchette of Florence; and

Whereas, Mrs. Beasley, a member of Lamar Methodist Church, was laid to rest in graveside services at Salem Black River Presbyterian Church Cemetery in Mayesville. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring, do hereby express their sincere and heartfelt sympathy to former Governor David M. Beasley upon the death of his mother, Jacqueline "JacAdelle" Blackwell Beasley of Darlington County on January 8, 2000, and offer the comfort of their collective faith and strength to him and his family in this time of sorrow.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to former Governor David M. Beasley.
