A concurrent RESOLUTION

TO REQUEST THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION NAME THE BRIDGE THAT CROSSES RUSSELL CREEK ALONG SOUTH CAROLINA HIGHWAY 174 IN CHARLESTON COUNTY "DAVID L. LYBRAND MEMORIAL BRIDGE" AND ERECT APPROPRIATE MARKERS OR SIGNS CONTAINING THESE WORDS.

Whereas, Mr. David Ladson Lybrand, husband of Doris (Patrick) Lybrand, passed away on September 20, 2015; and

Whereas, born on June 23, 1941, in the City of Aiken, David was the son of the late Harvie Lybrand and Jennie (Owens) Lybrand. He resided on Edisto Island from around 1946 until his death; and

Whereas, he was a 1963 graduate of The Citadel where he received his bachelor's degree in civil engineering; and

Whereas, for many years he was the owner and broker-in-charge of Edisto Sales and Rentals Realty until retiring in 2006; and

Whereas, he served his country with honor and distinction as a member of the United States Coast Guard; and

Whereas, as a member of the Edisto Beach City Council and throughout his life, David was devoted to the welfare of Edisto Island and its people; and

Whereas, it would be fitting and proper to dedicate a bridge on Edisto Island in Mr. David L. Lybrand's honor as a lasting memorial to this outstanding son of South Carolina. Now, therefore,

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

That the members of the General Assembly, by this resolution, request the Department of Transportation name the bridge that crosses Russell Creek along South Carolina Highway 174 in Charleston County "David L. Lybrand Memorial Bridge" and erect appropriate markers or signs containing these words.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the Department of Transportation.
