A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO CONGRATULATE LUCILE WEATHERS CAMPBELL OF DORCHESTER COUNTY, WHO RECENTLY CELEBRATED HER NINETIETH BIRTHDAY, AND TO WISH HER MANY YEARS OF CONTINUED HEALTH AND HAPPINESS.

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives are delighted to learn that Lucile Weathers Campbell of Dorchester County celebrated her ninetieth birthday on February 2, 2014; and

Whereas, one of five children born to Ellerbe Holroy Weathers and Lucy Lee Kizer Weathers, Lucile Weathers graduated from Harleyville High School in 1941 where she excelled in academics and basketball; and

Whereas, she continued to work in the family business, Weathers Cottages, Grille, and Service Station, which her family owned and operated in Rosinville; and

Whereas, on September 15, 1943, she married her beloved husband, Carl John Campbell, Sr., and together they reared three fine children: Carl John Campbell, Jr.; Loretta Campbell Crook; and Susan Campbell Gruber; and

Whereas, their children blessed them with an amazing family legacy: eleven adored grandchildren, eighteen great-grandchildren, and one great-great-grandchild; and

Whereas, from 1943 to 1945, Mr. Campbell served his country with distinction in the United States Army and was honorably discharged at the rank of staff sergeant; and

Whereas, in 1966, after years of rearing her children, Mrs. Campbell began a career at the Dorchester County Delinquent Tax Office, which was briefly interrupted in October of 1969 when her husband sustained an accidental wound while hunting. Several months later, she returned to the Dorchester County Delinquent Tax Office from which she retired in 1986; and

Whereas, although the accident left her husband a paraplegic, they enjoyed many years of traveling to Sanford, Florida, with her sister-in-law and brother-in-law, Elease and Albert Judy, where they fished in the St. John's River, and they also enjoyed lake life on Blount's Landing in Eutawville; and

Whereas, Lucile Campbell patiently and lovingly cared for her husband after his accident and considered the years she spent caring for him her most important and rewarding occupation. They were married for sixty-seven years; and

Whereas, she is a lifelong and devoted member of Indian Field Methodist Church and remains an active church and Sunday school member, and she continues to enjoy the Country Living Senior Group; and

Whereas, an avid amateur photographer and a stellar cook, Mrs. Campbell still likes to look through her photo collection and receives requests for her recipe for delicious homemade relish; and

Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives is pleased to honor this daughter of South Carolina, and the members join with her family and friends in congratulating her on reaching the extraordinary milestone of her ninetieth birthday. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, congratulate Lucile Weathers Campbell of Dorchester County who recently celebrated her ninetieth birthday, and wish her many years of continued health and happiness.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be provided to Lucile Weathers Campbell.
