A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

TO REQUEST THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION NAME THE INTERSECTION LOCATED AT THE JUNCTION OF BROAD RIVER ROAD AND HAVILAND CIRCLE IN RICHLAND COUNTY "DEPUTY DONNIE RENO WASHINGTON MEMORIAL INTERSECTION" AND ERECT APPROPRIATE MARKERS OR SIGNS AT THIS INTERSECTION CONTAINING THESE WORDS.

Whereas, Donnie Reno Washington, a deputy sheriff with the Richland County Sheriff's Department was killed in a single-car accident on Broad River Road while on duty as an undercover narcotics officer on October 16, 2003; and

Whereas, Deputy Washington had served with the Richland County Sheriff's Department for two years and had been in law enforcement for some nine years; and

Whereas, Sheriff Leon Lott stated Deputy Washington was known as a true athlete and consummate professional, committed to making the community safer and never quitting until the bad guys were in jail. He is survived by his son, Donovan Washington; and

Whereas, it is fitting and proper that members of the General Assembly pause to honor the memory of Deputy Sheriff Washington who paid the ultimate price while serving the citizens of Richland County and this State. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:

That the members of the South Carolina General Assembly request the Department of Transportation name the intersection at the junction of Broad River Road and Haviland Circle in Richland County "Deputy Donnie Reno Washington Memorial Intersection" and erect appropriate markers or signs at this intersection containing these words.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the Department of Transportation.
