A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

TO EXPRESS THE DEEPEST SYMPATHY OF THE MEMBERS OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY TO THE FAMILY OF ONE OF GREENVILLE'S MOST DISTINGUISHED PHYSICIANS, DR. IVERSON O. BROWNELL, UPON HIS DEATH.

Whereas, the members of the General Assembly were very saddened to learn of the death of Dr. Iverson O. Brownell of Greenville on January 11, 1993, at the age of seventy-six; and

Whereas, Dr. Brownell was a distinguished member of Greenville's medical community and was also Greenville's first practicing psychiatrist. He was a native of Oregon, and a graduate of Washington State University. Dr. Brownell received his medical degree from Duke University, interned at Grady Memorial Hospital in Atlanta, and did post-graduate training at Duke University Hospital and at Fairfield Hills State Hospital in Newtown, Connecticut; and

Whereas, he was certified in psychiatry by the American Board of Psychiatry in 1952, came to Greenville as its first psychiatrist and started the Mental Health Clinic. During his career, he served as president of the medical staff of Greenville Hospital System, president of Greenville County Medical Society, and medical director of Marshall I. Pickens Hospital. In 1991, he was honored by having Marshall I. Pickens Outpatient Service named the Brownell Diagnostic Center; and

Whereas, Dr. Brownell was also a respected church and civic leader in Greenville and was a Harris Fellow of the Greenville Rotary Club and a member and elder of the First Presbyterian Church; and

Whereas, the members of the General Assembly, by this resolution, would like to extend their sincere condolences to his wife, son, and three daughters upon the death of this truly outstanding physician and fine man. Now, therefore,

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

That the members of the General Assembly hereby express their deepest sympathy to the family of one of Greenville's most distinguished physicians, Dr. Iverson O. Brownell, upon his death.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to his widow, Mrs. Agnes Smith Brownell.
