TO REQUEST THAT THE DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES NAME THE PRESENTLY UNNAMED BOAT LANDING LOCATED IN RUSSELLVILLE IN BERKELEY COUNTY AS THE "AMOS GOURDINE BOAT LANDING" AND TO INSTALL APPROPRIATE SIGNS CONTAINING THE WORDS "AMOS GOURDINE BOAT LANDING" ON THE PROPERTY THROUGH LOCALLY GENERATED FUNDING BY THE DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES.
Whereas, Amos Gourdine served his House district and Berkeley County with ability and distinction during his service in the House of Representatives; and
Whereas, Amos and his lovely wife, Helen, reside in Pineville, and they are blessed with four wonderful children: Danita, Angela, Alfrida, and Olivia; and
Whereas, he is a native of Pineville, is a retired officer with the Department of Natural Resources and attended both Trident Technical College and Charleston Southern University; and
Whereas, it is proper and fitting for the House of Representatives to recognize the tireless efforts and outstanding contributions of such a distinguished South Carolinian. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, request that the Department of Natural Resources name the presently unnamed boat landing located in Russellville in Berkeley County as the "Amos Gourdine Boat Landing" and to install appropriate signs containing the words "Amos Gourdine Boat Landing" on the property through locally generated funding by the Department of Natural Resources.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the Department of Natural Resources.
