A SENATE RESOLUTION

TO EXPRESS THE PROFOUND SYMPATHY OF THE MEMBERS OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA SENATE TO THE LARGE AND LOVING FAMILY AND MANY FRIENDS OF MRS. CARRIE MAE REESE OF RICHLAND COUNTY UPON HER PASSING.

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina Senate were saddened to learn of the death of Carrie M. Reese at the age of eighty-four on May 31, 2022; and

Whereas, born in Sumter on August 2, 1937, Mrs. Reese was the daughter of the late Louise English and the late Nathan Williams; and

Whereas, Mrs. Reese graduated from C. A. Johnson High School in 1955 and was a pillar of the Greenview community for over sixty years; and

Whereas, together with her beloved husband, the late Charles Alfred Reese, Sr., she reared five fine children; and

Whereas, Mrs. Reese was a dedicated and faithful member of the Ladson Presbyterian Church for over seventy years. She served as a deacon, a member of the Presbyterian women's association, head usher, and a member of the choir, and she was selected as Woman of the Year; and

Whereas, her passion was working in the Greenview community in various associations. She served as a den mother for the Cub Scouts of Greenview Baptist Church, a volunteer substitute teacher at W. G. Sanders Elementary, an election poll worker, and a volunteer at the Columbia Museum for many years; and

Whereas, Mrs. Reese lived a rich, full life, surrounded by her loving family. She enjoyed having family get-togethers and helping her friends and those who were less fortunate. She also loved to travel to new and exciting places; and

Whereas, a devoted mother, Mrs. Reese leaves to cherish her memory five children: Charles Reese, Jr.; Curtis Reese, Carroll (Tom) Edmond; Chrisandra (Doug) Hayes; and Charleen (Dominque). She was doubly blessed with the affection of eight loving grandchildren, six great-granddaughters, and a host of nieces and nephews and relatives who will cherish her memory as well. She will be missed by the caring and compassionate staff at Amedisys Hospice Care and all the dedicated and special people who helped care for her over the months; and

Whereas, the South Carolina Senate is deeply grateful for the life and legacy of Mrs. Carrie Reese and for the example of sacrifice and kindness she set for all who knew her. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate:

That the members of the South Carolina Senate, by this resolution, express their profound sympathy to the large and loving family and many friends of Mrs. Carrie Mae Reese of Richland County upon her passing.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to the family of Mrs. Carrie M. Reese.
