A SENATE RESOLUTION

TO EXPRESS PROFOUND SORROW UPON THE PASSING OF MR. CHARLES JAMISON AND TO EXTEND THE DEEPEST SYMPATHY TO HIS FAMILY AND MANY FRIENDS.

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina Senate were deeply saddened to learn of the death of Mr. Charles Jamison on Sunday, December 20, 2020 at the venerable age of ninety-seven; and

Whereas, a native of Orangeburg County, Mr. Charles Jamison was born on December 25, 1922 to the late Henry Jamison and Alma Robinson Jamison. He was educated in the public schools of Orangeburg County; and

Whereas, a veteran of World War II, Charles entered the United States Army in 1942 at the age of eighteen. As a quartermaster, he was responsible for handling supplies, transportation, ammunition, and guard duty. He served under fire in Algeria and Russia until the end of the war; and

Whereas, returning home in 1946, Charles was employed by Utica Tool in Orangeburg and North High School; and

Whereas, over the years, Charles received a number of honors and awards, including a 2015 Honor Flight to Washington, D.C. to recognize his military service; and

Whereas, at an early age, Charles accepted Christ into his life and joined Hickory Hill Baptist Church, which he faithfully attended until his health declined. He will be remembered for his quiet spirit and soft-spoken words of encouragement and wisdom; and

Whereas, a committed family man, Charles was married to Annie Mae Ishmael Jamison for seventy-three years; and

Whereas, Charles was preceded in death by two sisters, Birdie Lee Edmond and Christa Bell Jefferson; five brothers, Henry, Morgan, Benjamin Clayton, Lowman, and James (Sug) Jamison; and

Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate:

That the members of the South Carolina Senate, by this resolution, express profound sorrow upon the passing of Mr. Charles Jamison and extend deepest sympathy to his family and many friends.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to the family of Mr. Charles Jamison.
