A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

TO REQUEST THAT THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION NAME THE PORTION OF BLUFF ROAD IN RICHLAND COUNTY FROM ITS INTERSECTION WITH DRY BRANCH ROAD TO ITS INTERSECTION WITH SIMS ROAD "DEACON THOMAS MYERS MEMORIAL HIGHWAY" AND ERECT APPROPRIATE MARKERS OR SIGNS ALONG THIS HIGHWAY THAT CONTAIN THE WORDS "DEACON THOMAS MYERS MEMORIAL HIGHWAY".

Whereas, Deacon Thomas Myers was born in Hopkins, the son of the late Boston and Evelyn Smith Myers, and died on February 13, 2011; and

Whereas, he was a faithful member of Apostolic Doctrine Evangelistic Church where he served as a deacon; and

Whereas, he was a retired employee of the Forth Jackson Special Services Department where he worked as a mechanic; and

Whereas, he is survived by his loving wife, Mary Taylor Myers, their six children, and a host of other relatives and friends; and

Whereas, it would be fitting and proper to name a portion of Bluff Road in Richland County as a lasting tribute to his legacy. Now, therefore,

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

That the members of the General Assembly request that the Department of Transportation name the portion of Bluff Road in Richland County from its intersection with Dry Branch Road to its intersection with Sims Road "Deacon Thomas Myers Memorial Highway" and erect appropriate markers or signs along this highway that contain the words "Deacon Thomas Myers Memorial Highway".

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the Department of Transportation.
