but transferred to The Colony Jan. 1
when Floyd opened the Precinct 2
office.. ; .
“I stole her from Precinct 1, and
I’ve never regretted it,” Floyd said.
"She was instrumental in setting up
the (Precinct 2) office. We had to do
it from scratch, and at that time, we
didn’t even have computers. All re-
cords were done by hand. She never
lost a paper.”
Sell was promoted to field deputy
status in October. Her duties include
serving warrants, handling civil pap-
ers and acting as bailiff in the justice
court.
“For me, becoming a police officer
was the most important thing that
ever happened to me,” Sell said. "It
meant I had finally reached a point
where I could do something for my-
self. Words cannot describe what
this kind of recognition means to
me.”
In presenting the Deputy of the
Year plaque, Floyd said Sell’s per-
formance on the job has been char-
acterized by “exceptional initiative
and professional competence” and
an outstanding dedication to duty.
“Your overall excellence was a
motivating influence which made
conspicuous contributions to the
successful fulfillment of the depart-
ment’s assigned missions,” Floyd
told her. “Your commendable
achievements, loyalty and devotion
to duty are in keeping with the finest
traditions of this department and re-
flects great credit upon you and the
law enforcement profession.”
