It is with a heavy heart that I ask you to join my family and me in prayer as we mourn the loss of my dear friend, Gerri McDaniel, who has passed away following a courageous battle with a life-threatening illness. 

Gerri was a pillar of strength and a powerful voice in the Republican Party, whose unwavering support for President Trump and conservative values shaped countless lives across South Carolina. Her unmatched passion, heart for service, and ability to bring people together in pursuit of a greater cause will forever be remembered. 

To her family, I offer my deepest condolences—her legacy of strength, leadership, and dedication will continue to inspire us all.
