A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

TO REQUEST THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION NAME THE INTERSECTION LOCATED AT THE JUNCTION OF CUSHMAN DRIVE AND BALDWIN ROAD IN RICHLAND COUNTY "DEPUTY DARRAL KEITH LANE, SR. MEMORIAL INTERSECTION" AND ERECT APPROPRIATE MARKERS OR SIGNS AT THIS INTERSECTION CONTAINING THIS DESIGNATION.

Whereas, Deputy Darral Keith Lane, Sr. joined the Richland County Sheriff's Department in February of 2006; and

Whereas, a veteran of the United States Army, Deputy Lane served twenty years before joining the Richland County Sheriff's Department; and

Whereas, Deputy Lane met an untimely death in the line of duty on December 14, 2007. He died of a heart attack following a car chase and foot pursuit of a suspect; and

Whereas, just before his death, Deputy Lane was named Deputy of the Quarter for the sheriff's department. Richland County Sheriff Leon Lott called Lane a great cop who was doing his job; and

Whereas, Deputy Lane is survived by his wife, Sheila, and two sons, Darral Lane, Jr. and Darius Lane. He will be greatly missed; and

Whereas, it would be fitting and proper to pay tribute to this son of South Carolina for his ultimate sacrifice by naming an intersection of the State in his honor. Now, therefore,

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

That the members of the South Carolina General Assembly, by this resolution, request the Department of Transportation name the intersection located at the junction of Cushman Drive and Baldwin Road in Richland County "Deputy Darral Keith Lane, Sr. Memorial Intersection" and erect appropriate markers or signs at this intersection containing this designation.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the Department of Transportation and presented to the family of Deputy Darral Keith Lane, Sr.
