Whereas, Chief Thomas S. "Billy" Haynie was born in Elberton, Georgia, the son of the late Robert and Inez Haynie and died on February 11, 2013, at the age of seventy-seven; and
Whereas, for fifty-nine years, he was the devoted husband of his beloved wife Marie Kidd Haynie, and together they reared two wonderful children; and
Whereas, for thirty-three years, he served as Chief of Police in the Town of Calhoun Falls with great honor and distinction; and
Whereas, Chief Haynie was a member of Calhoun Falls Pentecostal Holiness Church; and
Whereas, it would be fitting and proper to pay tribute to this distinguished law enforcement officer by naming a portion of highway in the Town of Calhoun Falls in his honor. 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 portion of South Carolina Highway 72 that is located within the Calhoun Falls town limits "Chief Billy Haynie Memorial Highway" and erect appropriate markers or signs along this portion of highway that contain the words "Chief Billy Haynie Memorial Highway".
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the Department of Transportation.
