A senate RESOLUTION

 

TO EXPRESS PROFOUND SORROW UPON THE PASSING OF debi Nicole price AND TO EXTEND THE DEEPEST SYMPATHY TO HER FAMILY AND MANY FRIENDS.

 

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina Seante were deeply saddened to learn of the death of Debi Nicole Price on March 23, 2024; and

 

Whereas, a native of Charleston, Ms. Price was born on November 8, 1981 to parents Casey Price and Wanda Reynolds Price. At an early age, she was diagnosed with Osteogenesis Imperfecta, a form of Brittle Bone Disease. Despite her diagnosis, Ms. Price's life was marked by life, joy, love, and determination; and

 

Whereas, Ms. Price graduated third in her class from Walterboro High School in 2000. She was a part of one of the last classes of the Walterboro Bulldogs before WHS became Colleton County High School. She went on to study at USC-Salkehatchie Campus, where she received her associate's degree and was the 2003 USC Salk Outstanding Student. She then continued her education at the University of South Carolina, where she received her bachelor's degree and her MA+30 in early elementary education with a specialty in special education; and

 

Whereas, while receiving her education, Ms. Price started with the Colleton County School District as a substitute teacher. Once accredited, she became a special education teacher for third, fourth, and fifth grades at Forest Hills Elementary School; and

 

Whereas, over the course of her career, Ms. Price touched the lives of many students, parents, and fellow educators. A leader in her field, she received many honors and awards, such as Forest Hills Rookie Teacher of the Year in 2012 and Forest Hills Teacher of the Year in 2016. In 2020 and for years after, she was voted the Best Teacher in Colleton County by the Press and Standards Best of the Best Contest; and

 

Whereas, Ms. Price was a true Carolina Gamecock fan. She was an active member of the Gamecock Club and went twenty-five years without missing a single home football game. She also enjoyed attending concerts, spending her summers in Myrtle Beach, and being a DJ for parties and events; and

 

Whereas, she was the namesake of Debi's Florist in Walterboro, the family business operated by her mom and MeMa, Barbara. Ms. Price and many of her friends worked at the shop on holidays and special occasions; and

 

Whereas, Ms. Price loved her family and friends and cherished spending time with them. She supported her loved ones with her enthusiastic presence, attending their sporting events, school or church functions, or anything else they were involved with; and

 

Whereas, a devout Christian, she grew up attending her old family church, Evergreen Christian Church, where she was active in Sunday school and Vacation Bible School. She eventually moved her membership to Grace Advent Christian Church, where she was a faithful and devoted member; and

 

Whereas, Ms. Price was preceded in death by her maternal grandparents, Marshall and Barbara Reynolds; her paternal grandparents, Bill and Juanita Price; and her two aunts, Coty Price Moseley and Debi Reynolds; and

 

Whereas, Ms. Price leaves to cherish her memory her parents, Casey and Wanda Price, and "her boy," Charlie Walker, who was the light of her life. She is also survived by her aunts and uncles, Rally Reynolds (Sami), Cherry Douglas (Tony), Corky Price (Stacey), and Charles Moseley; her great-aunt and uncle, Philip and Ernestine Brown; her cousins, Meagan (Brian), Laura (Logan), Christy (Justin), Allie (Madison), Corey, Dustin, Kalyn (Patrick), Cameron (Jimbo), Carson (Josh), Emma, Elise (Jake), Griffin, Cayson, Charlie, Brodie, Penn, Henley, Brantleigh, Wills, and Presley; and her best friends, Pam Butler Brownlee (Jimmy) and Jennifer Breland Sumner (Rickey). She will be greatly missed.  Now, therefore,

 

Be it resolved by the Senate:

 

That the members of the South Carolina Senate, by this resolution, express profound sorrow upon the passing of Ms. Debi Nicole Price and extend the deepest sympathy to her family and many friends.

 

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to the family of Debi Price.
