A senate RESOLUTION

TO CONGRATULATE L.A. Barrier & Son, Inc. UPON 
THE OCCASION OF ITS ninetieth ANNIVERSARY AND TO COMMEND the company FOR ITS 
MANY YEARS OF DEDICATED SERVICE TO THE PEOPLE AND THE STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA.

Whereas, the members of 
the South Carolina Senate are pleased to recognize L.A. Barrier & Son, Inc. 
as it celebrates this important milestone; and

Whereas, L.A. Barrier 
& Son, Inc. has been a trusted provider of industrial, residential, and 
commercial hauling services throughout South Carolina, North Carolina, and 
Georgia. Their expertise spans a wide variety of materials, and they are 
equipped to accommodate special requests. As a fully licensed and insured 
hauling service, they are dedicated to ensuring satisfaction with every job; 
and

Whereas, in 1935, Luther 
Alexander (L.A.) Barrier began his hauling business with local rock quarries 
and contractors who needed stone and topsoil hauled. As Mr. Barrier's reputation 
for reliability and diligence spread, so did the demand for his hauling 
services. His business continued to grow, and in 1968, L.A. Barrier & Son, 
Inc. relocated to its current location in Lexington; and

Whereas, this move 
marked a new chapter in the company's history, solidifying its presence in the 
region and allowing for further expansion in the South Carolina hauling 
industry. Over the decades, the company has remained a family-owned business, 
passing down the values of hard work, integrity, and dedication from generation 
to generation. Now in its third generation of family ownership, L.A. Barrier 
& Son, Inc. has become a stalwart of the hauling services industry in the 
Southeast; and

Whereas, the company's 
commitment to excellence is reflected in their affiliations and certifications. 
As proud members of the South Carolina Trucking Association and the Lexington 
Chamber of Commerce, they stay connected with industry standards and community 
values. Furthermore, their certification with the South Carolina Department of 
Transportation as a Disadvantaged Business Enterprise underscores their 
dedication to diversity and inclusivity in their operations; and

Whereas, in 2006, the 
company saw a significant milestone when Lisa Tyson was appointed as president. 
Under her leadership, L.A. Barrier & Son, Inc. has continued to flourish, 
building on the legacy of innovation and service established by L.A. Barrier 
himself. Ms. Tyson's vision and commitment have guided the company through the 
complexities of modern business while staying true to the core values that have 
defined them from the beginning; and

Whereas, the members of 
the South Carolina Senate greatly appreciate the dedication and commitment of L. 
A. Barrier & Son, Inc. to serving the people and the State of South 
Carolina. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate:

That the members of the South Carolina Senate, by this resolution, congratulate L.A. 
Barrier & Son, Inc. upon the occasion of its ninetieth anniversary and 
commend the company for its many years of dedicated service to the people and 
the State of South Carolina.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this 
resolution be presented to the president of L.A. Barrier & Son, Inc., Lisa 
Tyson.
