TO REQUEST THAT THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION NAME THE PORTION OF SOUTH CAROLINA HIGHWAY 9 IN DILLON COUNTY FROM ITS INTERSECTION WITH HIGHWAY 57 TO 2725 HIGHWAY 9 WEST AS THE “REVEREND RICHARD ‘DICK’ ALDERMAN HIGHWAY” AND ERECT APPROPRIATE MARKERS OR SIGNS ALONG THIS PORTION OF HIGHWAY THAT CONTAIN THE WORDS “REVEREND RICHARD ‘DICK’ ALDERMAN HIGHWAY”.

Whereas, in 1959, at twenty-three years of age and a freshly minted graduate of Southern Baptist Seminary, Dr. Richard Alderman was called to pastor Little Rock Baptist Church in Dillon County; and

Whereas, this year, at seventy-three years of age, Dr. Alderman will observe his fiftieth anniversary as pastor of Little Rock, a small rural community church outside the Town of Dillon; and

Whereas, throughout his tenure as pastor, Dr. Alderman has committed himself to unashamed expository preaching and teaching of the Word of God, always being available and loyal to his congregation and maintaining a strong commitment to world missions; and

Whereas, his ministry at Little Rock is a family affair where he leads the choir, his wife, Martha, whom he married when he was seventeen years old, serves as organist, and son, Jay, is the church’s pianist; and

Whereas, it is fitting and proper for the members of the General Assembly to recognize the faithful service of Dr. Richard
