“How do you find the words to properly honor 45 years of service and dedication to a community? Especially for a Chief of Police who led a department through so many changes and difficult times? How do you reflect a community’s love for that Chief? I’m no poet, so we’ll let these words speak for themselves and for Chief Holloway’s leadership.

“The greatness of a community is most accurately measured by the compassionate actions of its members.” – Coretta Scott King

Chief Holloway, thank you for guiding the department that protects this community. Thank you for grace, kindness, and all the laughs. You will be missed.”
