Westminster – Sheriff Jim DeWees was sworn in as the 58th Sheriff of Carroll County during an inauguration ceremony at Carroll Community College’s Scott Auditorium on Tuesday, December 2, 2014. Sheriff DeWees is a retired Captain with the Maryland State Police and is the first new Sheriff of Carroll County in 16 years. Sheriff DeWees won both contested primary and general elections by overwhelming margins to become Sheriff. Sheriff DeWees took control of the sheriff’s office from retiring Sheriff Kenneth Tregoning, who was first elected to office in 1998.

Sheriff DeWees was raised in Carroll County and is a 1988 graduate of South Carroll High School in Winfield, Maryland. He holds a Bachelors of Arts degree in Criminal Justice from Mount Saint Mary’s University in Emmitsburg, Maryland and a Masters of Arts degree in Human Resource Development from Seton Hall University in Trenton, New Jersey. Sheriff DeWees is also a graduate of the Northwestern University School of Police Staff and Command.

Sheriff DeWees is married with three children who attend Carroll County Public Schools. His wife of 16 years, Heather, is a teacher for Carroll County Public Schools and the girls’ varsity basketball coach at Manchester Valley High School. Sheriff DeWees is the second youngest of the six children of Joan and the late Thomas DeWees of Thurmont, Maryland.

Sheriff DeWees retired as a Captain from the Maryland State Police. His career with the Maryland State Police started after high school when he became a cadet at the age of 18. Sheriff DeWees rose through the ranks of the Maryland State Police and held numerous operational and command assignments within the organization. Sheriff DeWees spent the majority of his career as a patrol and investigative trooper, supervisor and barrack commander in Carroll County, assigned to the Westminster Barrack. Sheriff DeWees was commander of both the Westminster and Golden Ring Barracks, Operations Commander for the Washington Metropolitan Area and ended his 25-year career as the Special Operations Division Commander, overseeing Emergency Operations, K9, S.T.A.T.E. Team and the Motor Unit. He also served as an instructor at the State Police Academy. For most of his career, Sheriff DeWees served as an operator, team leader and commander of the Maryland State Police SWAT Team known as S.T.A.T.E.

In 1998, Sheriff DeWees was awarded the Governor’s Citation of Valor after he shot the gun out of a suicidal man’s hand, ending a two-hour standoff in Keymar, Maryland. He is also a recipient of the Superintendent’s Citation of Valor for his role in ending two separate armed standoffs in 2000 and 2002. Sheriff DeWees has received numerous awards for excellence in investigations and leadership.

Sheriff DeWees brings a diverse background of law enforcement experience and leadership to the Carroll County Sheriff’s Office. Continuing a career of public service, Sheriff DeWees now leads 260 dedicated employees who staff a full service law enforcement agency providing road patrol and criminal investigative services, a detention center, and courthouse security. Sheriff DeWees considers it one of the highest honors of his career to serve the citizens of Carroll County as their Sheriff.

Sheriff DeWees appointed Eldersburg resident Larry Suther as Chief Deputy of the Carroll County Sheriff’s Office. Suther is a retired major from the Baltimore County Police Department where he spent 38 years working his way through the ranks from cadet to major and retiring as commander of the Special Operations Division. Suther will hold the rank of Colonel and oversee the operations for the Office. Colonel Suther has extensive operational, tactical and investigative experience. Colonel Suther holds a Bachelor of Science Degree from the University of Baltimore and is a graduate of the FBI National Academy.

Sheriff DeWees also appointed Manchester resident Vicky McDonold as Director of the Management Services Bureau. Director McDonold comes to the Sheriff’s Office from the private sector where she was a project manager for Automatic Data Processing (ADP) in Owings Mills. Director McDonold holds a Bachelor of Science Degree from Towson University in finance and a Master’s Degree from University of Maryland University College in Technology Management.

1910 Westminster Carroll County Maryland Main Street

At any given time, most any of my old family post cards are “one of my favorites.” But I guess this one really is.

Postmarked from 1910, this post card looks east on Westminster’s Main Street from the rail road tracks. If you were to see the original post card, you would notice that the street was still dirt. Amazingly, Westminster’s Main Street was dirt up to around 1923.

I remember many dirt streets, alleys and roads while growing-up in Westminster in the 1950s and 1960s.

This image was published by my good friend, historian, artist, musician and photographer, Ken Koons over at the Carroll County Times. If you have any old photos of Carroll County, consider contacting Kenny and sharing them in the “Reflections of Carroll’s Past” section of the newspaper.

Former Westminster employee, Ed Stitely passed away July 3, 2015

I really enjoyed working with Ed at the city. He was conscientious and friendly… He was old-school, hard-working, always willing to help and cared about his job and the other employees and the citizens for whom he worked.

Those we love don't go away. They walk beside us every day, Unseen, unheard, but are always near. Still loved, still missed and very dear. Remember he is always with you.

May memories of happy times sustain his family. May God's love embrace his family and bring them peace. Healing graces for his family, friends and colleagues. We keep Ed and his family in our hearts and prayers.

So sorry for your loss.

New Office of the State Fire Marshal patch

New Office of the State Fire Marshal patch http://kevindayhoffwestgov-net.blogspot.com/2015/07/new-office-of-state-fire-marshal-patch.html

June 2, 2015

According to a recent release by the Office of the State Fire Marshal:

In 2014 the Office of the State Fire Marshal celebrated its 50th Anniversary and for a little over thirty of those years the OSFM has been recognized and identified by the familiar "blue oval" OSFM patch.

For the 50th Anniversary, Fire Marshal Geraci tasked a small cadre of sworn employees to design a special edition 50th Anniversary patch for employees and "in-house" use only.

After designing and formally introducing the 50th Anniversary patch, Fire Marshal Geraci decided the OSFM should have a newer, fresher and re-branded logo and the work group was again given the honorable task of designing a new OSFM patch.

This patch was designed to be unique in its look as well as to show the OSFM is an agency under the Department of State Police. After numerous meetings and design changes, two (2) designs were submitted to the employees of the OSFM and all employees voted for the final patch.

On April 1, 2015 the new logo was officially adopted for official OSFM use. You may have noticed this new logo on recently sent Notice of Investigations (NOI) and News Releases as well as our website and Facebook pages. I wanted to forward you the new logo in JPEG format should you want to use an OSFM logo on your website or on your printed copies. We are requesting you to use this new logo and to discontinue the older "blue oval".

Additionally, OSFM sworn police employees will soon be issued new badges that again are unique its design, clearly identifiable and can not be ordered on a "build a badge" website. Additional information may follow in a News Release in the future from PIO Bruce Bouch.
