TO EXPRESS PROFOUND SORROW UPON THE PASSING OF BOBBIE J. PADGETT, TO CELEBRATE HER LIFE, AND TO EXTEND THE DEEPEST SYMPATHY TO HER FAMILY AND MANY FRIENDS.
Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives were deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Bobbie J. Padgett on January 24, 2020, at the venerable age of eighty-two; and
Whereas, born January 11, 1938, in Salley, South Carolina, Bobbie was the daughter of Jessie O. and Barney Miller. Her family relocated to the Fairview area of Leesville, where she attended Wagener-Salley High School, before pursuing additional education at Columbia International University, formerly known as Columbia Bible College. Upon finishing her education, she began her career working for Bank of America, where she served diligently for twenty-eight years; and
Whereas, as her time working came to a close, Mrs. Padgett and her husband traveled West across the country for a once in a lifetime camping trip. Following their trip, she settled into the more leisurely pace of retirement and time with family and friends; and
Whereas, Mrs. Padgett married her loving husband, Javas D. Padgett, with whom she experienced sixty-one delightful years of marriage. Together, the couple had two sons and a daughter, Douglas Padgett, Greg Padgett, and the late Ann P. Jackson. They were also blessed with three beautiful grandchildren, Christopher Jackson, Megan Barker, and Logan Padgett; and
Whereas, Bobbie J. Padgett leaves a host of family, friends, and her beloved cat Gizmo to treasure her memory. She will be honored, cherished, and greatly missed by all who had the privilege of knowing her. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, express profound sorrow upon the passing of Bobbie J. Padgett, celebrate her life, and extend the deepest sympathy to her family and many friends.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Mr. Javas D. Padgett, for the family.
