Bill > H4981

This resolution, a formal expression of opinion or will by the South Carolina General Assembly, requests that the Department of Transportation (DOT), the state agency responsible for roads and highways, officially designate the intersection of United States Highway 301 and Black Branch Road in Dillon, South Carolina, as the "Joseph B. 'Benny' Cooper Intersection." The resolution also calls for the erection of signs at this location to commemorate the naming. This action is intended to honor Joseph B. "Benny" Cooper Jr. for his over fifty years of dedicated service as a funeral director and embalmer in Dillon and surrounding counties, during which he founded Cooper Funeral Home and provided compassionate care to families, also noting his extensive community involvement and religious service.
