Whereas, the Loyal Temperance Union (ages six through twelve) and the Youth Temperance Council (ages twelve through twenty-one) were founded by Mrs. Addy to express the danger of alcoholic beverages and harmful drugs and to point the advantage of a life lived in abstinence; and
Whereas, Mrs. Addy has touched many lives over the years with her art work, which she continues today, as a teacher and principal, with flower arranging, bird programs to the schools and organizations, and as a horticulturist with the Yellow Jessamine Garden Club; and
Whereas, St. Paul United Methodist Church depends on Mrs. Addy to continue her work as an active member for eighty-nine years, a Sunday School teacher for thirty-nine years, and as a volunteer helper at the Saluda Nursing Center; and
Whereas, Mrs. Addy was married first to James Marvin Matheny who died in the flu epidemic in 1919 and then to Samuel Roland Elwell Addy who died in 1963; and
Whereas, Mrs. Addy had four children, eight grandchildren, eighteen great-grandchildren, and four great-great-grandchildren; and

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:
That the members of the General Assembly congratulate Mrs. Lois Crouch Matheny Addy on reaching her 100th birthday.
