This resolution commends Barry M. White for his 31-year career in law enforcement with the Clarke County Sheriff's Office, highlighting his distinguished service across multiple roles. White's career progression included starting as a 911 dispatcher in 1995, becoming the first School Resource Officer (SRO) for the Quitman School District in 2001, advancing to Sergeant supervising the night shift in 2004, and ultimately serving as Chief Deputy since 2012 under multiple sheriffs, including his most recent retention by Sheriff Anthony Chancelor in 2024. The resolution emphasizes White's commitment to public service, with Sheriff Chancelor noting that White is "more than an officer" and is first and foremost a public servant. The document acknowledges the significant contributions of law enforcement officers and their families, and formally recognizes White's legacy by resolving to commend his outstanding public service on his retirement. Additionally, the resolution stipulates that it will be presented to White and his family, forwarded to the Sheriff and County Board of Supervisors, and made available to the Capitol Press Corps.
