A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO HONOR BISHOP JOHN HURST ADAMS AND DOLLIE D. ADAMS FOR THEIR MANY AND VARIED CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA, TO CONGRATULATE THEM ON REACHING THEIR FIFTIETH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY, CELEBRATED AUGUST 2006, AND TO EXTEND BEST WISHES FOR MANY MORE YEARS OF BLESSING AND FULFILLMENT.

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives are pleased to learn that Bishop John Hurst Adams and Dr. Dollie D. Adams reached their fiftieth wedding anniversary in August of 2006; and

Whereas, there is no greater success in life than a marriage and family life that endures the test of time and grows stronger with each passing year; and

Whereas, the long-lasting love and support of a spouse is unmatched in its importance and cannot be overestimated; and

Whereas, Bishop and Dr. Adams' commitment to one another over the past fifty years is to be revered and serves as an inspiration to both family and friends; and

Whereas, adding to their contentment, Bishop and Dr. Adams raised a fine family of three daughters, Gaye D. Adams-Massey, Jann Hurst Adams-Brogdon, and Madelyn Rose Adams-Cobb, and now enjoy many grandchildren, as well; and

Whereas, during the fifty years of their marriage, Bishop John Hurst Adams, now retired, rendered distinguished service to his God, his denomination, and his state as Senior Bishop of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, supported by his devoted wife, Dollie D. Adams, who served alongside him in innumerable positions and capacities, many of her duties being performed quietly, behind the scenes, in ways that only God knows and will reward, her life being living proof of the biblical injunction that "whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the Lord" (Proverbs 18:22); and

Whereas, it is with great pleasure that the members of the House of Representatives express their congratulations to these two outstanding South Carolinians on reaching the milestone of their golden wedding anniversary. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, honor Bishop John Hurst Adams and Dollie D. Adams for their many and varied contributions to the State of South Carolina, congratulate them on reaching their fiftieth wedding anniversary, celebrated August 2006, and extend best wishes for many more years of blessing and fulfillment.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to Bishop John Hurst Adams and Dr. Dollie D. Adams.
