Whereas, Lance Corporal Nash was a member of Oakwood Baptist Church; and

Whereas, Lance Corporal Nash tragically lost his life on September 19, 2009, while escorting a charity ride in Camden in honor of Trooper Hardy M. Godbold who was killed in the line of duty in 1992; and

Whereas, Lance Corporal Nash, who is survived by his parents and daughter, Andrea, was an excellent trooper and was wellloved by all who knew him; and

Whereas, it would be fitting and proper to name the interchange located at Exit 27 along Interstate Highway 85 in Anderson County the “Lance Corporal Jonathan Shea Nash Interchange” as a lasting memorial to this fallen trooper. Now, therefore,
