Turner’s Tidbits

This is a photo of some of our public servants from 1985. (L to R) Hank Thompson, Bonnie Hissam, Gary Lipscomb, Carol Irons, and George Worden. At that time, George was the Deputy and I believe that Gary was the Sheriff. It is interesting to note that both Hank and Carol would later go on to serve terms as Sheriff. In 2000, Carol served one year of an unexpired term when Marshall Davisson passed away. She then ran for Sheriff and was elected. The law was that the Sheriff could not hold the position for two terms in a row. Thus, when her four year term expired, she could not run again. Ideas or comments contact Tim Turner (304) 478-3389.
