THE COMMITTEE ON TRANSPORTATION

To whom was referred a Concurrent Resolution (H. 4376) to request that the Department of Transportation name the bridge that crosses the Saluda River along South Carolina Highway 20 in Anderson and Greenville Counties, etc., respectfully

REPORT:

A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

TO REQUEST THAT THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION NAME THE BRIDGE THAT CROSSES THE SALUDA RIVER ALONG SOUTH CAROLINA HIGHWAY 20 IN ANDERSON AND GREENVILLE COUNTIES THE "HAROLD L. DRENNON, JR. MEMORIAL BRIDGE", AND ERECT APPROPRIATE MARKERS OR SIGNS AT THIS BRIDGE THAT CONTAIN THE WORDS "HAROLD L. DRENNON, JR. MEMORIAL BRIDGE".

Whereas, the Honorable Harold L. Drennon, Jr. was born on September 12, 1931 and died on December 28, 1995; and

Whereas, he and his wife Sara were married for forty-four years, and together raised three children; and

Whereas, Mr. Drennon was a member of Tabernacle Baptist Church in the Town of Pelzer where he served as a Deacon and Sunday School Teacher; and

Whereas, he served his country with honor as a Second Lieutenant during the Korean War and was honorably discharged as a Captain with the United States Army upon completion of his military career; and

Whereas, he was a member of the Pelzer Town Council; and

Whereas, his desire to improve the lives of his community's young people led him to serve as a teacher at Wren High School for thirty-two years, and serve as a principal at Concrete, Wren, and White Plains schools for ten years; and

Whereas, he was Wren High School's first football and basketball coach and was the announcer for their athletic events for about twenty-five years; and

Whereas, it is fitting and proper for the members of the General Assembly to name the bridge that crosses the Saluda River along South Carolina Highway 20 in Anderson and Greenville Counties in honor of this distinguished South Carolinian. Now, therefore,

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

That the members of the General Assembly request that the Department of Transportation name the bridge that crosses the Saluda River along South Carolina Highway 20 in Anderson and Greenville Counties the "Harold L. Drennon, Jr. Memorial Bridge", and erect appropriate markers or signs at this bridge that contain the words "Harold L. Drennon, Jr. Memorial Bridge".

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