THE COMMITTEE ON

INVITATIONS AND MEMORIAL RESOLUTIONS

To whom was referred a Concurrent Resolution (H. 5402) to request the Department of Transportation name the portion of the Pamplico Highway in Florence County from its intersection with Flowers Road to its intersection with Branch Road, etc., respectfully

REPORT:

That they have duly and carefully considered the same and recommend that the same do pass:

JIMMY C. BALES for Committee.

            

A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

TO REQUEST THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION NAME THE PORTION OF THE PAMPLICO HIGHWAY IN FLORENCE COUNTY FROM ITS INTERSECTION WITH FLOWERS ROAD TO ITS INTERSECTION WITH BRANCH ROAD "CHIEF APOSTLE FRED GRAHAM HIGHWAY" AND ERECT APPROPRIATE MARKERS OR SIGNS ALONG THIS PORTION OF HIGHWAY CONTAINING THIS DESIGNATION.

Whereas, Apostle Fred Graham was born on November 18, 1932, in Florence County, the son of Mr. Press and Mrs. Alberta Graham; and

Whereas, he and his wife Lady Bernice Burrell Graham are the proud parents of six children; and

Whereas, Apostle Graham honorably served this country as a member of the United States Army; and

Whereas, for over fifty years Apostle Graham has dedicated his life to spreading the word of God as an elder, evangelist, pastor, and apostle; and

Whereas, today, he serves as chief apostle and is the founder and prelate of the Pentecostal United Churches of Christ (Apostolic) Inc.; and

Whereas, it would be fitting and proper for members of the General Assembly to recognize the accomplishments of this great man of God by having a portion of the Pamplico Highway in Florence County named in his honor. Now, therefore,

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

That members of the General Assembly request the Department of Transportation name the portion of the Pamplico Highway in Florence County from its intersection with Flowers Road to its intersection with Branch Road "Chief Apostle Fred Graham Highway" and erect appropriate markers or signs along this portion of highway containing this designation.

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