A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

TO REQUEST THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION NAME THE INTERSECTION LOCATED AT THE JUNCTION OF SOUTH CAROLINA HIGHWAY 9 BYPASS AND GILLSBROOK ROAD IN THE CITY OF LANCASTER IN LANCASTER COUNTY "C.D. 'BUBBER' GREGORY, JR. INTERSECTION" AND ERECT APPROPRIATE MARKERS OR SIGNS AT THIS INTERSECTION CONTAINING THESE WORDS.

Whereas, Mr. C.D. "Bubber" Gregory, Jr., was born in Lancaster on June 15, 1928, and died on August 25, 2021. He was the son of the late Chauncey D. Gregory, Sr., and Gladys Gray Gregory; and

Whereas, he served his country with honor and distinction as a member of the United States Navy in the mid 1940s, and played on the USS Princeton's baseball team, which helped introduce baseball to the citizens of Japan and the surrounding areas; and

Whereas, following his discharge from the Navy, Mr. Gregory entered Furman University, graduating in 1951. He later joined his father at Builder's Supply Company, a business established by his grandfather, William Thurlow Gregory, in 1908; and

Whereas, he was named president of Builder's Supply Company in 1966. He then became active in numerous national trade organizations, including serving on the Dealers Advisory Board of Builders Marts of America and as president of the Carolinas-Tennessee Building Dealers Material Association; and

Whereas, Mr. Gregory's commitment to his local community included: president of the Merchants Association which became the Lancaster County Chamber of Commerce; chairman of the executive committee of the Elliott White Springs Memorial Hospital; member of the Lancaster County Medical Endowment board of directors; member of the Furman University board of trustees; and chairman of the Educational Foundation of the University of South Carolina Lancaster; and

Whereas, he was an active member and deacon of First Baptist Church and a founding member of Covenant Baptist Church; and

Whereas, he is survived by his wife of forty years, Betsy Woltz Gregory, their four children, and a host of other relatives and friends; and

Whereas, it would be fitting and proper to recognize the good works of this son of South Carolina by naming an intersection in his honor in the City of Lancaster. Now, therefore,

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

That the members of the General Assembly request the Department of Transportation name the intersection located at the junction of South Carolina Highway 9 Bypass and Gillsbrook Road in the City of Lancaster in Lancaster County "C.D. 'Bubber' Gregory, Jr. 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.
