A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

TO REQUEST THAT THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION NAME THE PORTION OF INTERSTATE HIGHWAY 95 BETWEEN MILE MARKERS 165 AND 167 "SCHP LANCE CORPORAL JACOB HAM, JR. MEMORIAL HIGHWAY" AND ERECT APPROPRIATE MARKERS OR SIGNS ALONG THIS PORTION OF HIGHWAY THAT CONTAIN THE WORDS "SCHP LANCE CORPORAL JACOB HAM, JR. MEMORIAL HIGHWAY".

Whereas, on February 8, 1998, Lance Corporal Jacob Ham, Jr., of the South Carolina Highway Patrol was on duty in Darlington County when he suffered a heart attack and died while subduing and arresting a suspect during a traffic stop; and

Whereas, he was a twelve year veteran of the Patrol and was married to Mrs. Denise Ham; and

Whereas, it would be fitting and proper to honor Lance Corporal Ham by naming a portion of Interstate Highway 95 in his memory. Now, therefore,

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

That the members of the General Assembly request that the Department of Transportation name the portion of Interstate Highway 95 between mile markers 165 and 167 "SCHP Lance Corporal Jacob Ham, Jr. Memorial Highway" and erect appropriate markers or signs along this portion of highway that contain the words "SCHP Lance Corporal Jacob Ham, Jr. Memorial Highway".

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the Department of Transportation.
