A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

TO EXPRESS THE PROFOUND SORROW OF THE MEMBERS OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA GENERAL ASSEMBLY UPON THE DEATH OF WILLIAM RUSSELL “BILL” FLOYD, OF COLUMBIA, AND TO EXTEND DEEPEST SYMPATHY TO HIS FAMILY AND MANY FRIENDS.

Whereas, the members of the General Assembly were saddened to learn of the death of William Russell “Bill” Floyd on Monday, May 14, 2001; and

Whereas, Bill Floyd was born in Columbia, the son of Clise L. and Patricia Patrick Floyd, and graduated in 1984 from the University of South Carolina. He was the owner of Floyd and Floyd, a men’s clothier. He coached youth soccer and Little League baseball; and

Whereas, Bill was a committed member of Trenholm Road United Methodist Church where he was a Sunday school teacher and member of the “Believers” Sunday School Class. His faith sustained him through his illness and inspired his family, friends, and acquaintances; and

Whereas, Bill Floyd was devotedly married to Sophia Floyd, our friend and colleague who has worked for the House of Representatives for eighteen years. He was a loving father of two sons, William Whit and Jordan Weston. In addition to his wife and children, Mr. Floyd is survived by his parents of Columbia and sisters, Sharon Floyd Dyar of Columbia and Patricia Ann Floyd of Atlanta; and

Whereas, with the loss of this fine man at a young age, the people of Columbia and South Carolina have lost a person who was a wonderful husband and father, a good friend, and a person who had a true love of life. He and his family fought his serious illness with heart, determination, courage, spirit, and strong faith; and

Whereas, the members of the General Assembly would like Sophia, his sons, Whit and Jordan, and the other members of his family to know they are thinking of them in this time of sorrow. Now, therefore,

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

That the members of the General Assembly, by this resolution hereby express their profound sorrow upon the death of William Russell “Bill” Floyd, of Columbia, and extend deepest sympathy to his family and many friends.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to Mrs. Sophia Brazell Floyd of Columbia.
