EXPRESSING THE PROFOUND SORROW OF THE MEMBERS OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA AT THE DEATH OF THE HONORABLE LUTHER LANGFORD TAYLOR, JR., OF RICHLAND COUNTY, DISTINGUISHED MEMBER OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, AND EXTENDING DEEPEST SYMPATHY TO HIS FAMILY AND MANY FRIENDS.
Whereas, the members of the General Assembly were deeply saddened to learn of the death on Sunday, March 23, 1997, of The Honorable Luther Langford Taylor, Jr., who served in the House of Representatives from 1983 to 1990; and
Whereas, he earned a B.S. degree from Clemson University; and
Whereas, he was a former deputy director of the Midlands Human Resources Development Commission, and a former chairman of the Richland County Board of Zoning Adjustments; and
Whereas, during his eight years of service in the House of Representatives, he was a faithful champion of his constituents' needs and worked diligently to provide fire service, sidewalks, traffic lights, and water and sewer service throughout House District 77; and
Whereas, although he left the House of Representatives to defend himself of charges lodged during the "Operation Lost Trust" investigation, his good name and reputation were restored by United States Federal District Court Judge Falcon B. Hawkins, whose February 28, 1997 order dismissed all charges brought against him; and
Whereas, he departed this life with tremendous respect, admiration, and love from countless devoted friends and associates; and
Whereas, we want the family and the many friends of The Honorable Luther Langford Taylor, Jr., to know that they are uppermost in our thoughts and prayers and have our deepest sympathy and love. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:
That the members of the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina, by this resolution, express profound sorrow at the death of The Honorable Luther Langford Taylor, Jr., distinguished member of the South Carolina House of Representatives, and extend deepest sympathy to his wonderful family and many friends.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the family of The Honorable Luther Langford Taylor, Jr.
