Dear Citizens,

As we gather to observe Memorial Day, I am deeply honored to stand with the residents of Jefferson County in solemn remembrance of the courageous men and women who have laid down their lives in service to our nation. Their ultimate sacrifice has secured the freedoms we cherish and upholds the values that define our great country.

Today, we pause to honor their memory and reflect on their selfless dedication to duty. Let us express our profound gratitude to the families who have borne the burden of loss, knowing that their loved ones' bravery and commitment have safeguarded our way of life.

As the 32nd Sheriff of Jefferson County, I am committed to upholding the principles for which they fought. We remember their legacy not just today, but every day, as we strive to serve and protect our community with the same unwavering dedication.

May we all find strength and inspiration in their sacrifice, and may their legacy continue to guide us towards a future of peace and freedom.

Respectfully,
