A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO CONGRATULATE DR. CARL JAMES RECORDS OF HORRY COUNTY ON THE OCCASION OF HIS ONE HUNDREDTH BIRTHDAY AND TO WISH HIM MUCH HAPPINESS IN THE DAYS AHEAD.

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives are delighted to learn that Dr. Carl James Records of Horry County celebrated his one hundredth birthday on March 26, 2018; and

Whereas, born on March 26, 1918, in the early part of the twentieth century, this Edinburgh, Indiana, native has been witness to nearly all the remarkable social changes, technological advancements, and international developments that have transformed the world from that time into the second decade of the twenty-first century; and

Whereas, Carl Records graduated from Hahnemann Medical College in 1943. Prior to going off to war in 1944, the young Carl took care of some important business: He married his sweetheart, Alma. As a patriotic American, he then proudly served in World War II as a captain and combat medical doctor, seeing action on the front lines in the European theatre, notably in France and Belgium, as well as being deployed to Egypt; and

Whereas, after Carl Records returned home from military service, he and Alma moved to Cape May, New Jersey, where they began serving their community as a practicing physician and nurse. In the fullness of time, they also joyfully welcomed their daughter, Martha, into the world; and

Whereas, Dr. Records worked diligently and enthusiastically to maintain a thriving medical practice of more than forty-three years, during which he delivered more than 2,500 babies, made no fewer than 12,000 house calls over a twenty-year period, and served nearly 124,000 patients; and

Whereas, believing strongly in personal involvement with his community, Carl Records served as a driving force in the Cape May Rotary Club and had a hand in establishing the original Rotary Band Stand. He was a perfect attendance record holder of the Cape May Rotary for thirty-six years, a member for sixty-one years, and a Lifetime Paul Harris Fellow. Moreover, he was instrumental in the founding of three additional Cape May County clubs; and

Whereas, he also served his community as Cape May and Lower Regional School physician, Cape May County coroner, and as a physician at the Cape May County-managed Crest Haven Nursing and Rehabilitation Center; and

Whereas, several years after the passing of Alma, Carl Records married Helen Glazier, who also worked at Crest Haven; and

Whereas, now a resident of Horry County in the Palmetto State, Carl Records remains active as a founding member of the Carolina Forest Rotary Club in Myrtle Beach. As a golf enthusiast, he continues to indulge in this favorite pastime; in fact, he played two holes on his one hundredth birthday, parring one; and

Whereas, the House of Representatives is pleased to honor Dr. Records on the recent celebration of his centennial birthday, and the members join with his family and friends in congratulating him on reaching this extraordinary milestone. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, congratulate Dr. Carl James Records of Horry County on the occasion of his one hundredth birthday and wish him much happiness in the days ahead.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Dr. Carl James Records.
