A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

TO EXPRESS THE PROFOUND SORROW OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY UPON THE DEATH OF SOUTH CAROLINA STATE REPRESENTATIVE CATHY HARVIN OF CLARENDON COUNTY ON SATURDAY, DECEMBER 4, 2010, AND TO CONVEY THE DEEPEST SYMPATHY TO HER FAMILY AND MANY FRIENDS.

Whereas, remembering her outstanding achievements in service to District No. 64 and to South Carolina as a whole, the members of the General Assembly were deeply saddened by news of the passing of South Carolina State Representative Cathy Harvin on December 4, 2010; and

Whereas, born on December 31, 1953, in Quantico, Virginia, the daughter of Janet A. and Hyman J. Brand, Representative Harvin graduated from the University of South Carolina in 1975; and

Whereas, in 1982, she married Representative Charles Alexander Harvin III. After his untimely death in 2005, she won her husband's seat in the South Carolina House of Representatives, thus honoring his wishes that she continue their service to District No. 64, Clarendon-Williamsburg counties, the constituency both of them cared for so deeply. Cathy Harvin also continued to manage a successful business as major accounts manager for Dell Computers; and

Whereas, additionally, Representative Harvin, firmly believing in active involvement in her community and State, had served on the South Carolina Higher Education Foundation Board of Trustees since 2001 and was chairman from 2001 to 2006. She had also served with the Lightsey Society since 2006; Santee Lynches Regional Council for Governments Board since 2006; South Carolina Commission on Higher Education from 1999 to 2002; Coastal Carolina University Board of Trustees from 1993 to 2006; Pee Dee Regional Education Foundation Board from 1994 to 1998; Sumter, Clarendon, Lee United Way Regional Board from 1992 to 1998; and was president of the Clarendon County Chamber of Commerce in 1994. In 1994, she was a graduate of Leadership South Carolina; and

Whereas, in the South Carolina Legislature, she had served on the Medical, Military, Public & Municipal Affairs Committee since 2006 and was secretary at her passing. She had also served as chairman of the Subcommittee on Health and Environmental Affairs since 2006 and as deputy minority leader since 2007; and

Whereas, a woman of faith, Cathy Harvin was a member of Summerton Presbyterian Church; and

Whereas, she leaves to cherish her memory Janet and Hyman Brand, her parents; one daughter, Mary Franklin Harvin; one sister, Diane Brand Hundley; and a host of other family members and friends, including her legislative colleagues; and

Whereas, as both private citizen and legislative representative of this great State, Cathy Harvin long will be remembered for her dedicated labors on behalf of the people of South Carolina. She served her beloved Clarendon County and this State with distinction and grace, and she will be greatly missed. Now, therefore,

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

That the members of the South Carolina General Assembly, by this resolution, express their profound sorrow upon the death of South Carolina State Representative Cathy Harvin of Clarendon County on Saturday, December 4, 2010, and convey the deepest sympathy to her family and many friends.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the family of South Carolina State Representative Cathy Harvin.
