Whereas, Corporal William Howell , Jr., was born on June 12, 1961, the son of William and Mary Howell ; and

Whereas, in 2005, he joined the Orangeburg County Sheriff's Department and at the time of his death had attained the rank of corporal; and
Whereas, he was a very active member of Silas United Methodist Church where he served as the church organist and keyboardist; and
Whereas, on May 3, 2008, while responding to a domestic violence call in Holly Hill, Corporal Howell tragically lost his life; and
