Whereas, the members of the South Carolina General Assembly were deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Charles Hinson on April 27, 2021; and

Whereas, a native of Conway, Charles Hinson was born on October 16, 1952, to parents Wendell Edwin Hinson and Lucille Ruby Calhoun Hinson. He was an alumnus of Coastal Carolina College; and

Whereas, a veteran of the United States Marine Corps, Charles served two years on active duty and four years as a reservist; and

Whereas, for over thirty years, Charles worked with Waccamaw Land and Timber, and he also served as a president of Apache Campground; and

Whereas, a leader in his community, Charles was a member of the Horry Lodge #381 AFM and was a 32nd Degree Scottish Rite Mason. He was also a member of the Omar Temple of the Shrine and the Omar Peddlers; and

Whereas, Charles leaves to cherish his memory his wife, Kathy Hinson; his children, Katie Hinson Lewis and husband Cody, Courtney Cleveland and husband Darrin, and Chase Hinson; his grandchildren, Hunter and Grayson Lewis; his brother, Keith Hinson and wife Dixie; his sister, Karen Ligon and husband Tom; several nieces and nephews; and his dog, Toby, and cat, Reba. He will be greatly missed. Now, therefore,

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