COMMITTEE REPORT
April 28, 2022
S. 1280
S. Printed 4/28/22--H. [SEC 5/2/22 11:04 AM]
Read the first time April 21, 2022.
To whom was referred a Concurrent Resolution (S. 1280) to request that the Department of Transportation name the North Tyger River Bridge on Hwy 296, also known as Reidville Road, between Shenandoah Drive and Nichols Drive in Spartanburg County ", etc., respectfully
That they have duly and carefully considered the same and recommend that the same do pass:
DENNIS C. MOSS for Committee.
TO REQUEST THAT THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION NAME THE NORTH TYGER RIVER BRIDGE ON HWY 296, ALSO KNOWN AS REIDVILLE ROAD, BETWEEN SHENANDOAH DRIVE AND NICHOLS DRIVE IN SPARTANBURG COUNTY "KEEGAN ISAIAH JOHNSON BRIDGE" AND ERECT APPROPRIATE MARKERS OR SIGNS AT THIS LOCATION CONTAINING THIS DESIGNATION.
Whereas, the members of the South Carolina General Assembly are deeply saddened to learn of the death of Keegan Isaiah Johnson on February 5, 2020, at the age of seventeen; and
Whereas, a native of Spartanburg, Keegan was born on October 23, 2002, to parents Joey and Allison (Johnson) Miller. He was a junior at Dorman High School in Roebuck; and
Whereas, Keegan was the eldest of three boys and was a funny, kind-hearted big brother. He had the best smile and loved everyone, making friends wherever he went; and
Whereas, Keegan played both baseball and football for the Chapman Panthers and the Dorman Cavaliers. He also attended Lake Bowen Baptist Church, Anderson Mill Baptist Church, and the Fuse Group at NewSpring Church; and
Whereas, before Keegan passed away due to a rare form of bacterial meningitis, he received his driver's license and chose to become an organ donor. Keegan was able to save four lives with five major organs and also donated his tissue, bones, and valves as well, which can save hundreds of lives; and
Whereas, it would be fitting and proper to pay tribute to this son of South Carolina by naming a portion of road in the State in his honor. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the Senate, the House of Representatives concurring:
That the members of the South Carolina General Assembly, by this resolution, request that the Department of Transportation name the North Tyger River Bridge on Hwy 296, also known as Reidville Road, between Shenandoah Drive and Nichols Drive in Spartanburg County "Keegan Isaiah Johnson Bridge" and erect appropriate markers or signs at this location containing this designation.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the Department of Transportation and presented to the family of Keegan Isaiah Johnson.
