Bill > S0400

This resolution honors Nathaniel Hunter Sipes, a young man from Laurens County, South Carolina, who was a firefighter, Food Lion employee, and devout Christian who passed away on June 27, 2021, at a young age. The resolution requests that the South Carolina Department of Transportation (DOT) officially rename the intersection of US-76 and State Road S-30-46 in Laurens County as the "Nathaniel Hunter Sipes Memorial Intersection" by erecting appropriate markers or signs with this designation. The resolution provides background on Sipes' life, noting he was born on May 14, 2001, to James Sipes and Angela Wilson Whiteford, was a Laurens Academy graduate remembered as a "wonderful young man with a wonderful spirit," and enjoyed motorcycling, outdoor activities, hunting, and fishing. Additionally, the resolution mandates that a copy of the resolution be forwarded to the DOT and presented to Sipes' family, which includes his brother Cody, nephew James, partner Kadince Robinson, and grandparents, as a way of commemorating his life and promising future that was tragically cut short.
