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.

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.
