Firearms, which is in charge of courtroom security and inmate transports. He stated he receives a lot of
compliments from the public and the judges for the security provided by court deputies, and
Mr. Fisher's quiet demeanor has a calming effect and he has done a fantastic job serving the
community. Mr. Fisher thanked his peers who were present, the Board, and Sheriff Cooke for the
employment opportunity and for the ability to retire and enter into another phase of life, and he
recognized his family members for their influence in his life. He also stated the change is bitter-sweet
and he has been surprised at how emotional it is to leave the close "family" connections made through
his profession. He stated they provided a significant support during the loss of his son and during the
