TO EXPRESS THE 
PROFOUND SORROW OF THE MEMBERS OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA GENERAL ASSEMBLY UPON THE 
PASSING OF CYNTHIA HELEN JORDAN WATSON OF RICHLAND COUNTY AND TO EXTEND THEIR 
DEEPEST SYMPATHY TO HER LARGE AND LOVING FAMILY AND HER MANY FRIENDS.

Whereas, the members of 
the South Carolina General Assembly were saddened to learn of the death of 
Cynthia Helen Jordan Watson at the age of sixty-five on Sunday, March 9, 2025; 
and

Whereas, born in White 
Plains, New York, July 3, 1959, she was a daughter of the late James E. and 
Louise Jordan, and her early education in public schools took place in many 
countries around the world where her father was stationed with the United 
States Army; and

Whereas, the family 
settled in Columbia when he retired, and Cynthia graduated from W.J. Keenan 
High School. She attended Columbia College, where she majored in speech 
language pathology; and

Whereas, Ms. Watson accepted 
Christ at an early age in her life. She was a faithful and active member of St. 
Mark United Methodist Church in North, where she sang on the Gospel Choir and 
was a member of the United Methodist Women Organization; and

Whereas, with an 
impressive career spanning multiple, impactful roles, Ms. Watson served as the 
executive director and owner of Crescent Moon Consulting Group, which showcased 
her entrepreneurial spirit and dedication to driving meaningful change by using 
her talents in sales, marketing, and grant writing; and

Whereas, she dedicated 
her professional life to advocacy, community leadership, and organizational 
development. As a key member of the Voter Protection Unit at the South Carolina 
Democratic Party since October 2020, Ms. Watson worked to safeguard electoral 
integrity; and

Whereas, Ms. Watson 
used her outstanding leadership to serve her community with dedication. She was 
a former board member and chair of the Bicycle Pedestrian Advisory Commission 
for the City of Columbia, where she had been actively contributing since 2019 
to the improvement of urban mobility and public safety. Her role as field 
director at the Richland County Democratic Party demonstrated her commitment to 
empowering local communities and fostering political engagement; and

Whereas, an avid reader, 
she enjoyed sharing her love of books with everyone she knew. She enthusiastically 
participated in sports activities, including tennis, biking, and marathon 
running. She enjoyed traveling and attending sporting events, like watching 
Lady Gamecocks basketball and Columbia Fireflies baseball games; and

Whereas, Ms. Watson was 
a devoted mother to her beloved daughter, Khrystin McKenzie Watson. Their relationship 
was rooted in unconditional love, mutual respect, and countless cherished 
memories, all of which were a testament to the beauty of a mother's devotion 
and a daughter's adoration; and

Whereas, the members of 
the South Carolina General Assembly are grateful for the life and legacy of 
Cynthia Watson and for the example of service and kindness she set for all who 
knew her. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate, the House of 
Representatives concurring:

That the members of the South Carolina General 
Assembly, by this resolution, express their profound sorrow upon the passing of 
Cynthia Helen Jordan Watson of Richland County and extend their deepest 
sympathy to her large and loving family and her many friends.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this 
resolution be presented to the family of Cynthia Helen Jordan Watson.
