A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

TO REQUEST THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION TO NAME THE HIGHWAY 61 CONNECTOR FROM THE JAMES ISLAND EXPRESSWAY TO SOUTH CAROLINA ROUTE 61 IN CHARLESTON COUNTY AS THE HERBERT U. FIELDING CONNECTOR.

Whereas, Senator Herbert U. Fielding, son of Julius P.L and Sadie E. (Gillard) Fielding, is a former member of the South Carolina House of Representatives and the South Carolina State Senate; and

Whereas, he was born in Charleston on July 6, 1923, and continues to reside there today; and

Whereas, Senator Fielding received his Bachelor of Science degree from West Virginia State College in 1948; and

Whereas, Senator Fielding has made substantial contributions to his country by serving in World War II; and

Whereas, Senator Fielding, serving as Vice President of the Fielding Home for Funerals and as a member of the Trident Chamber of Commerce, has made significant contributions to the Charleston business community; and

Whereas, Senator Fielding has rendered service as a member of several important organizations including the South Carolina Commission on Vocational Rehabilitation, the University of South Carolina Budget Board, the Board of McClennan Banks Hospital, the South Carolina Human Affairs Commission, the Trident Council on

Alcoholism, Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, and the Robert Gould Shaw Boys Club, where he served as president; and

Whereas, Senator Fielding has been a tireless advocate of civil rights and has fought to enhance the quality of life for all South Carolinians; and

Whereas, in recognition of this strong tradition of community service and leadership it seems fitting to memorialize Senator Fielding by dedicating a bridge in his name. Now, therefore,

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

That the members of the General Assembly of South Carolina request that the Department of Transportation name Highway 61 from the James Island Expressway to South Carolina Route 61 in Charleston County as the Herbert U. Fielding Connector.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to Senator Herbert U. Fielding.
