A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO EXPRESS THE PROFOUND SORROW OF THE MEMBERS OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES UPON THE UNTIMELY PASSING OF JASMINE MACIE ELMORE OF ORANGEBURG COUNTY, AND TO EXTEND THEIR DEEPEST SYMPATHY TO HER LOVING FAMILY AND HER MANY FRIENDS.

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives were saddened to learn of the untimely death of Jasmine Macie Elmore at the age of twenty on May 9, 2018; and

Whereas, born in Orangeburg on January 26, 1998, she was the beloved daughter of Adella Anderson Elmore and Jackie Elmore, Sr., and was the sister of two devoted brothers, Jackie Elmore, Jr., and William Elmore; and

Whereas, Jasmine left a large and loving family to cherish her memory, including grandparents Mamie Anderson Kershaw and Christopher Kershaw; uncles John Elmore, Joe Elmore, James Elmore, and Marvin Elmore; aunts Cynthia Seawright, Barbara Ann Calhoun, Myra Elmore, LaVetra Sullivan, Claydell Elmore, Octavia Wilmore, and Barbara Jean Elmore; and cousins Alexis Brooks, Acacia Brooks, Alecia Huff, Shana Seawright, Shayla Seawright, Shalea Seawright, Diamond Sullivan-Berry, Emerald Sullivan, and Nauria Wilmore; as well as her beloved godmother, Prophetess Alice Baker, and godsister, Kamilah Legette; and

Whereas, a talented musician known for her beautiful singing voice, Jasmine was inspired to turn her passion for music into her life's endeavor by majoring in music education at Winthrop University following her graduation from Orangeburg-Wilkinson High School. At the time of her passing, she had just completed her second year at Winthrop University, where she served two years on the Winthrop University Chorale; and

Whereas, Jasmine enjoyed singing, praise dancing, playing softball, braiding hair, painting and drawing in her spare time; and

Whereas, in words of remembrance prompted by her sudden passing, Winthrop officials aptly stated, "she had a wonderful voice, silenced now way too early"; and

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives are grateful for the life and joy that Jasmine Elmore shared with those around her and for the example of dedication and kindness she set for all who knew her. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, express their profound sorrow upon the untimely passing of Jasmine Macie Elmore of Orangeburg County, and extend their deepest sympathy to her loving family and her many friends.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to the family of Jasmine Macie Elmore.
