A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO EXPRESS PROFOUND SORROW UPON THE PASSING OF MILDRED MORGAN SPRINGS, TO CELEBRATE HER LIFE AND ACHIEVEMENTS, 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 Mildred Morgan Springs on Tuesday, July 27, 2021, at the venerable age of ninety-one; and

Whereas, originally from Edgefield County, Mildred was born on October 20, 1929, as the eleventh of twelve children to the late Waldo and Sophie Morgan. While she only was educated in the schools of Edgefield County through the sixth grade, she continued to amass a wealth of knowledge and experience throughout her life; and

Whereas, a diligent woman of faith, Mildred was baptized and raised in the Pleasant Grove Baptist Church. Later, she joined the Seventh-day Adventist faith and chose to serve in many capacities over more than seventy years as a member of the Johnston Seventh-day Adventist Church; and

Whereas, Mildred shared much of her extraordinary life with her husband, the late James Leonard Springs, whom she married in November 1944. Together they were blessed with six children, Ella Mae, Lenny, Melvin, Brenda, Marvene, and Mildred Elaine; and

Whereas, throughout her life, Mildred sought to experience all the joys that the many years might bring her. She was known for her excellent cooking, her love of gardening, and for her love of spending time talking with friends and family. Mildred spent several years serving as the president of the Helping Hands Club and was a faithful member and officer of the Star Bright Christmas Saving Club. Well loved by those who knew her, her presence will be greatly missed by those who spent time with her; and

Whereas, Mildred leaves to cherish her memory her children, Ella Mae Springs Jones, Lenny F. Springs, Melvin Springs, Marvene S. Carey, and Mildred Elaine Springs-McCottry; her grandchildren, Valjean Favor, Lenny L. Springs, Byron Springs-McCottry, Melva Springs, Kyshia L. Carey, Mel Springs, Bertron Harris Beard II, Mari Springs, Joi Gilliam, John Leonard Carey, and Elyse Bailey; her great-grandchildren, Deshona Hawes, Princess Springs, Matthew Coverson-Springs, Myles Coverson-Springs, Bertron Harris Beard III, Erin Springs-McCottry, Kyle Leonard Springs-McCottry, Braylon Springs, Morgan Coverson-Springs, Jaden Beard, Katelyn Taylor, Lawson Springs, Synclaire Gilliam, Koleman LJ Springs, and Sullivan Gilliam; her great-great-grandchildren, Tamari King, Jurnee Hawes, and Saige Reyolds; her sister, Rose Bethea; and a host of other family and friends. She will be greatly missed by all who had the pleasure 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 Mildred Morgan Springs, celebrate her life and achievements, and extend the deepest sympathy to her family and many friends.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to the family of Mildred Morgan Springs.
