Whereas, Apostle Fred Graham was born on November 18, 1932, in Florence County, the son of Mr. Press and Mrs. Alberta Graham; and

Whereas, he and his wife Lady Bernice Burrell Graham are the proud parents of six children; and

Whereas, Apostle Graham honorably served this country as a member of the United States Army; and

Whereas, for over fifty years Apostle Graham has dedicated his life to spreading the word of God as an elder, evangelist, pastor, and apostle; and

Whereas, today, he serves as chief apostle and is the founder and prelate of the Pentecostal United Churches of Christ (Apostolic) Inc.; and

Whereas, it would be fitting and proper for members of the General Assembly to recognize the accomplishments of this great man of God by having a portion of the Pamplico Highway in Florence County named in his honor. Now, therefore,
