VERSIONS OF THIS BILL
TO EXPRESS THE PROFOUND SORROW OF THE MEMBERS OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES UPON THE PASSING OF RUTH MUSE CHAMBERS OF ASHEVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA, AND TO EXTEND THE DEEPEST SYMPATHY TO HER FAMILY AND MANY FRIENDS.
Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives was deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Ruth Muse Chambers of Asheville, North Carolina, on February 18, 2020, at the venerable age of ninety-eight; and
Whereas, born the daughter of Hollis T. Muse and Vera Call Muse on November 17, 1921, the young Ruth graduated from Coffee High School in Florence, Alabama; and
Whereas, in God's time, she met and married her high school sweetheart, Harold Davis Chambers. The couple became the proud parents of three fine sons, Roger, Mark, and Joel, and enjoyed forty-five years of marriage until Harold's passing; and
Whereas, during her career, for nineteen years Ruth served at the South Carolina House of Representatives in Columbia, South Carolina, until her retirement, when she moved to Asheville, North Carolina, to be near her two grandchildren, Carly Jane Chambers and Benjamin Muse Chambers. She had many friends in the Columbia area; and
Whereas, as a woman of faith, for many years she was a devoted member of Longcreek Church of Christ, and for a short time she held membership at Biltmore Church of Christ; and
Whereas, preceded in death by her beloved husband, as well as by her sisters, Grace Hurd of Charlotte, North Carolina, and Helen Edwards of Florence, Alabama, and two brothers, Robert L. Muse and James W. Muse of Florence, Alabama, she leaves to cherish her memory her three devoted sons, Dr. Roger David (Gloria) Chambers of Tampa, Florida, Mark L. Chambers of Hickory, North Carolina, and Joel H. Chambers of Asheville, North Carolina; her two grandchildren; and a host of other family members and friends. She will be greatly missed by all who had the privilege of knowing 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 passing of Ruth Muse Chambers of Asheville, North Carolina, and extend the deepest sympathy to her family and many friends.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Dr. Roger David Chambers for the family.
