The bill, S. 611, is a concurrent resolution introduced in the South Carolina General Assembly to express profound sorrow over the passing of Diana Matthews Floyd, who died on November 2, 2024. The resolution extends deepest sympathy to her family and friends while commending the establishment of the Diana M. Floyd Scholarship Fund. Mrs. Floyd, a dedicated healthcare professional and community advocate, made significant contributions to Aiken County, including leading a successful campaign for a one-cent sales tax to fund local public school infrastructure projects and advocating for better resources for pediatric therapy.

In honor of Mrs. Floyd's legacy, the resolution establishes that beginning in 2025, a scholarship will be awarded annually to a graduating senior from each public high school in Aiken County. The recipients will be students pursuing a degree in the medical field who exemplify the character and determination that Mrs. Floyd embodied throughout her life. The resolution concludes with a directive to present a copy of the resolution to her family, ensuring that her contributions and impact on the community are remembered and celebrated.
