Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives were deeply saddened to learn of the death of Robert Bryant, Jr., of Jasper County on December 29, 2010; and
Whereas, born January 10, 1926, the son of the late Robert and Lillie Polite Bryant, Robert Bryant, Jr., relocated from Miami, Florida, to Garnett at an early age; and
Whereas, he gave his life to the Lord, also at an early age, and joined Bethel Baptist Church in Pineland; and
Whereas, he was a retired educator from the Jasper County School District in Ridgeland, having taught and served in several school districts in South Carolina and two in Georgia over the course of his career; and
Whereas, he leaves to cherish his memory his wife, Hazel L. Bryant; daughters Rose B. Dixon and Joy Bryant and son Wayne V. Bryant; and a host of other family members and friends. He will be greatly missed. Now, therefore,
