TO HONOR THE LIFE AND LEGACY OF REBECCA BROWN ADAMS 
OF HOPKINS AND TO CONGRATULATE HER FAMILY ON THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE FIRST 
ANNUAL REBECCA BROWN ADAMS MEMORIAL WALK, TO BE HELD ON SATURDAY, MAY 24, 2025.

Whereas, the South 
Carolina Senate proudly joins the community of Hopkins in honoring the life and 
enduring legacy of Rebecca Brown Adams, a remarkable woman whose love, service, 
and steadfast presence have deeply enriched her family and the Cabin Creek 
community; and

Whereas, Mrs. Rebecca 
Brown Adams was the only daughter of the late Ellen Brown Sumter, from whom she 
inherited a spirit of strength, dignity, and grace, and she continued that 
legacy through a life marked by humility, generosity, and leadership; and

Whereas, the devoted 
mother of nine children, she raised each with care, resilience, and unwavering 
faith and through them sowed a legacy that continues to bear fruit across 
generations; and

Whereas, she was a 
noted cook whose meals fed more than just the body; indeed, they became a 
source of gathering, healing, and community connection; and

Whereas, Mrs. Adams was 
a trusted, go-to member of the Cabin Creek community in Hopkins, a quiet force 
whose wisdom, compassion, and readiness to serve made her a pillar of strength 
for neighbors and friends alike; and

Whereas, serving as an 
example for all who knew her, her life reflected the highest values of 
commitment to family, dedication to community, and deep-rooted faith; and

Whereas, the legacy of 
Rebecca Brown Adams will now be honored annually through a community walk in 
her name, preserving her memory and spirit of unity for generations to come. 
Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate:

That the members of the South Carolina Senate, by this resolution, honor the life and 
legacy of Rebecca Brown Adams of Hopkins and congratulate her family on the 
establishment of the first annual Rebecca Brown Adams Memorial Walk, to be held 
on Saturday, May 24, 2025.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution 
be presented to the family of Rebecca Brown Adams.
