A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

TO OFFER THE SINCERE CONDOLENCES OF THE MEMBERS OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA UPON THE DEATH OF MRS. HARRIET BARTELL RYAN OF SUMTER COUNTY AND TO EXTEND DEEPEST SYMPATHY TO HER FAMILY AND MANY FRIENDS.

Whereas, the members of the General Assembly were saddened to learn that Mrs. Harriet Bartell Ryan of Sumter County died on Tuesday, January 27, 1998; and

Whereas, Mrs. Ryan was born in the Indiantown Community of Williamsburg County and was the daughter of Arthur May McLeod Bartell and the late John Scott Bartell; and

Whereas, the late Harriet Bartell Ryan is survived by her husband James Hugh Ryan, Jr., State Forester of the South Carolina Forestry Commission; son, James Hugh Ryan III of Columbia; daughters, Rebecca Anne Ryan of Columbia, Amelia Ryan McMullan and Anna Caroline Ryan, both of Atlanta; sister, Charlotte Bartell Swearingen of Columbia; and grandchildren, William Maxwell McMullan II and Ryan Wesley McMullan; and

Whereas, Mrs. Ryan was a graduate of the University of South Carolina and was actively involved in the Wedgefield Presbyterian Church, the DAR, and the Stateburg Literary and Musical Society.

Whereas, Mrs. Ryan also served as a volunteer at the Presbyterian Home in Columbia and Covenant Place in Sumter; and

Whereas, Mrs. Ryan will always be remembered by her beloved family and friends as an individual devoted to her family, church, and community; and

Whereas, it is entirely fitting that her memory, numerous contributions, and accomplishments will be honored for many years to come; and

Whereas, we want James Hugh Ryan, Jr., and all of the rest of Harriet Bartell Ryan's family and many friends to know that they are uppermost in our thoughts and prayers. Now, therefore,

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

That the members of the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina offer sincere condolences upon the death of Mrs. Harriet Bartell Ryan of Sumter County and to extend deepest sympathy to her family and many friends.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to Mr. James Hugh Ryan, Jr.
