HCR 89 West Virginia House of Delegates · 2025 Regular Session

U. S. Army SP4 Kermit Harold Yoho Memorial Bridge

HCR 89 is a concurrent resolution requesting the West Virginia Division of Highways rename a bridge in Marshall County (on WV 002 over Big Grave Creek, currently called Lindsey Bridge) as the "U.S. Army SP4 Kermit Harold Yoho Memorial Bridge." It directs the Division to install signs identifying the bridge with this new name, honoring Specialist Four Kermit Harold Yoho, a West Virginia native who died in Vietnam in 1966. This is a memorial resolution with no substantive policy changes, solely focused on naming a specific bridge.

Introduced Version → Committee Substitute · 3 edits

MINOR

The bill text was reformatted from an 'Introduced Version' to a 'Committee Substitute' version, with minor textual corrections to the soldier's rank designation and formatting of the memorial bridge name. The substantive policy request to name the bridge remains unchanged.

TECHNICAL

Changed 'SP4' to 'Spec 4' and 'U. S. Army' to 'U.S. Army' in the memorial bridge name for consistency and standard formatting.

Removed 'Delegate Sheedy' attribution and updated committee history to reflect the bill originated in the Committee on Energy and Public Works rather than being referred to it.

Adjusted 'Whereas' clauses to remove redundant 'SP4' and 'Yoho' repetitions for improved readability while maintaining the same factual content.
