VERSIONS OF THIS BILL
A house RESOLUTION
To express profound sorrow upon the passing of Councilman W.B. Wilson and to extend the deepest sympathy to his friends and family.
Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives were deeply saddened to learn of the passing of W.B. Wilson on Friday, March 15, 2024 at the age of 87; and
Whereas, Wilson was a retired Williamsburg County councilman and the husband of Verlena Dicker Wilson. He was wholeheartedly committed to serving his community, whether he was serving as a councilman, serving as a volunteer firefighter, or volunteering to read to children at Hemingway Elementary School. Participating in boards and committees was a large part of Wilson's contributions to his community. He was a board member on boards ranging from school boards, library boards, college boards, the Red Cross, church boards, and many more. He also served as president for the Hemmingway High School Band Booster and Athletic Booster Club, for United Way in Wilmington, Delaware, and for the Indiantown Precinct and Executive Committee; and
Whereas, W.B. Wilson's accomplishments in Williamsburg County while serving as a councilman were great, and the fruit of his efforts will be long lasting. He contributed to the development of five new fire stations, the expansion of water and sewer utilities, the building of four new county builds, and a myriad of building renovations and business developments. His commitment to Williamsburg County was evident by his continued efforts to create jobs, provide job training, and build a better community for the people of Williamsburg County; and
Whereas, W.B. Wilson leaves to cherish his memory his wife, Verlena Dicker Wilson; one daughter, P. Jeanette Simon; one son, Andre (Tabitha) Wilson; one brother, Samuel C. (Ruth) Wilson; two sisters, Fannie Smith and Valtricia Cunningham; along with a host of other relatives and friends. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, express profound sorrow upon the passing of councilman W.B. Wilson and extend the deepest sympathy to his friends and family.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to the family of W.B. Wilson.
