Letter | Tyler Servant is the right choice for S.C. House District 106

Tyler Servant is the right choice for House 106

As a resident of Murrells Inlet, I was astounded at the negative tone of The Sun News article about Tyler Servant. It was also disappointing during Tyler’s successful election to Horry County Council to read letters to the editor with some of these same insinuations and inferences.

I’ve known his family for 15 years when my family moved here. They met us with open arms in our church, where they give generously of their time, talents and resources. Tyler should never have to apologize for his and his families’ hard work and success. There are things in life that are achieved and maintained only through honest work and integrity.

Tyler is a man of his word and is asking to serve our community as his family has for generations, and I hope he is given this opportunity.

Burney Bourne, Murrells Inlet
