VERSIONS OF THIS BILL
TO HONOR FREDDIE ALONZO MACK OF DARLINGTON FOR HIS MORE THAN THIRTY YEARS OF MUSIC MINISTRY AS DIRECTOR OF THE WESLEY CHAPEL-ST. JOHN MASS CHOIR AND TO WISH HIM GOD'S RICHEST BLESSINGS AS HE CONTINUES TO SERVE THE LORD.
Whereas, it is with great pleasure that the South Carolina House of Representatives honors those individuals who give tirelessly of themselves to nurture the souls of men; and
Whereas, Freddie Alonzo Mack of Darlington, director of Wesley Chapel-St. John Mass Choir for more than thirty years, stands among their number as an outstanding music minister, one much admired by colleagues, congregation, and area residents at large; and
Whereas, born May 28, 1949, in Darlington, Freddie Alonzo Mack is the son of Modisteen Mack and the late Alonzo Mack. Having graduated in 1967 from Mayo High School, he furthered his education at Florence-Darlington Technical College, where he earned multiple associate degrees. Freddie served in the United States Air Force during the Vietnam War, and he worked as a tool maker at ESAB, formerly known as Union Carbide, in Florence. In April 2015, he retired from ESAB after forty-seven years' service; and
Whereas, as a man of faith, Freddie is a member of Wesley Chapel United Methodist Church and has served there in various capacities, including Sunday School superintendent, chair of the administrative board, coordinator of Vacation Bible School and the prison ministry, and choir director; and
Whereas, Freddie is a humble, God-fearing man who relishes golfing, bowling, fishing, and sports and enjoys traveling and visiting different places with his family. In addition, he loves music, and his passion for music has evolved into a powerful community ministry through his position as director of the Wesley Chapel-St. John Mass Choir. Freddie has directed hundreds of songs over the years, but his determination, will power, and strong faith can be summed up in the words of his favorite song, "Total Praise": "Lord, I will lift mine eyes to the hills, knowing my help is coming from You. Your peace You give me in time of a storm. You are the source of my strength; you are the strength of my life. I lift my hands in total praise to You!"; and
Whereas, married to Flora N. Mack, Freddie finds strength for his many duties through her strong support, as well as that of their children, Qwanderlyn Mack Goodson (Michael), Freddie Andre (Angela), Dr. Tiffany Mack Daniels (Raymond), and Nigel Bernard. Six delightful grandchildren also love and encourage Freddie: Michael Dorian, Dalen O'Neal, Freddie O'Brien, Eris Loren, Raymond Evan, and Alana Katherine; and
Whereas, the House, cognizant of his many years of spiritual nourishment of the people of South Carolina through music, wishes to express its grateful thanks to Mr. Mack and wish him God's best as he continues to run the race the Lord has set before him. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, honor Freddie Alonzo Mack of Darlington for his more than thirty years of music ministry as director of the Wesley Chapel-St. John Mass Choir and wish him God's richest blessings as he continues to serve the Lord.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Freddie Alonzo Mack.
