TO CONGRATULATE LEOLA ALEXANDER OF YORK COUNTY ON THE OCCASION OF HER ONE HUNDRED THIRD BIRTHDAY AND TO WISH HER A JOYOUS BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION AND MANY YEARS OF CONTINUED HEALTH AND HAPPINESS.
Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives are delighted to learn that Leola Alexander of York County celebrated her one hundred third birthday on Saturday, March 30, 2024. Born on March 27, 1921, in the first quarter of the twentieth century, she has witnessed the many remarkable social changes, technological advancements, and international developments that have spanned the globe from that time into the first quarter of the twenty-first century; and
Whereas, without a license or formal training, Mrs. Alexander taught a sort of mathematics through her example, not in a school classroom but in her community, when she added the values of love and hard work to her life; subtracted a can't do attitude from her mind; multiplied these concepts in her home, church, and community; and divided them among her children; and
Whereas, together with her loving husband, Albert Alexander, she reared thirteen children, who blessed her with the affection of forty-three loving grandchildren. She has enjoyed seeing the extension of her loving family legacy in seventy-four great-grandchildren and thirty-six great-great-grandchildren; and
Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives honor this daughter of South Carolina at the celebration of her one hundred third birthday and join her family and friends in congratulating her on reaching this extraordinary milestone. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, congratulate Leola Alexander of York County on the occasion of her one hundred third birthday and wish her a joyous birthday celebration and many years of continued health and happiness.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Leola Alexander.
