Chief's Scrapbook

One of the reasons I've been busy lately was that our Chief of Police retired November 30 of this year.  In early October he asked me to make a scrapbook for him and a couple of days later brought me a box with his collections from 1972-2010, needless to say it was quite a project!!!  I ended up with four HUGE four inch scrapbooks and SEVERAL hours of work.  Here are pictures from the department retirement party when I gave him the scrapbook.  They were too heavy to carry so we wheeled them out on a walker for added effect, I mean we had him driven to the party in a hearse so why not??

 I gave him back the box that he put the items in, not quite sure how he fit them all in.

There was a picture at the end of the scrapbook with the Chief and the new boat he purchased earlier in the year saying 150....10-42.  His number is 150 and 10-42 is checking off duty.  I framed a smaller version for him to have.
