_______
A concurrent RESOLUTION
to request the department of transportation name the
portion of United States Highway 521 in Clarendon County from its intersection
with Hill Street traveling north to the Manning City Limit "David Arnold McCabe
Sr. Memorial Highway" and erect appropriate signs or markers at this location
containing these words.
Whereas, a cherished
pillar of the Manning community, David Arnold McCabe Sr.'s friendly demeanor,
kindness, and passionate spirit touched all who knew him; and
Whereas, born in Sumter
on October 23, 1946, to the late Edward Earl and Jessie Laura Spigner McCabe,
his life was marked by his steadfast commitment to service and the betterment
of his community. He proudly served his country as a member of the South
Carolina National Guard. After his distinguished military service, McCabe
embarked on a career as a skilled tool and die maker at Federal Mogul, a global
supplier of powertrain and safety technology. Here, he was respected for his
meticulous work and collaborative nature; and
Whereas, it was in the
realm of barbecue that McCabe truly made his mark. Along with his brothers, he
cofounded McCabe's BBQ, a family run establishment that quickly became a
culinary landmark. He was especially proud when the restaurant garnered
accolades that included features in such magazines as Southern Living,
Garden and Gun, and SC Midlands BBQ Trail. He saw these not as
personal triumphs, but as victories for all of Clarendon County; and
Whereas, when his
brothers retired, he welcomed the opportunity to work alongside his son and
daughter, continuing the family legacy and ensuring the business would thrive.
His role as a mentor and leader was as natural to him as his ability to create
mouthwatering barbecue; and
Whereas, beyond his
professional endeavors, McCabe's faith and community involvement were
cornerstones of his life.  He was a devout member of Clarendon Baptist Church
for more than seventy years serving as a deacon, providing guidance and support
to fellow congregants, and embodying the very essence of servant leadership;
and
Whereas, he also was a
proud member of the Clarendon County Gideons, an organization committed to distributing
Bibles and sharing the Christian faith. His involvement with the Gideons was
not merely a duty, but a heartfelt mission, as he believed in the power of the Word
to bring hope and comfort to people everywhere; and
Whereas, he was a
devoted husband to Mary Frances Beard McCabe, his wife of fifty-six years, a
loving father to their children David Arnold McCabe Jr. and Lindy McCabe
Morris, and he doted on his three grandchildren; and
Whereas, McCabe passed
away peacefully on Sunday, August 6, 2023, surrounded by his loving family.
Those who knew him remember his warm smile and generous heart. His ability to
forge genuine connections with people from all walks of life was one of his most
remarkable qualities; and
Whereas, passion for
his work, his family, and his faith created a legacy that will be fondly
remembered and deeply missed by those who had the privilege to know David
Arnold McCabe Sr. It is only fitting and proper that he also is honored with a
portion of highway in his beloved City of Manning named in his memory. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House
of Representatives, the Senate concurring:
That the members of the
South Carolina General Assembly, by this resolution, request the Department of
Transportation name the portion of United States Highway 521 in Clarendon
County from its intersection with Hill Street traveling north to the Manning
city limit "David Arnold McCabe Sr. Memorial Highway" and erect appropriate
signs or markers at this location containing these words.
Be it further resolved that
a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the Department of Transportation.
