| WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to | ||
| recognize Senior Sergeant Mickey Spillane Tolbert, who is | ||
| retiring from the Dallas County Sheriff's Department on April 30, | ||
| 2019, after 32 years of exceptional service; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Mickey Tolbert began his long career with the | ||
| Dallas County Sheriff's Department in 1987 as an officer with the | ||
| Detention Service Office, and he was promoted to deputy in | ||
| January of 1989; and | ||
| WHEREAS, He distinguished himself working in numerous | ||
| capacities as a deputy sheriff, and in 1998, he was promoted to | ||
| the rank of senior sergeant; he became a respected leader at the | ||
| department while serving as commander of the Planning and | ||
| Research Unit; and | ||
| WHEREAS, For the last 12 years of his career, Sergeant | ||
| Tolbert has been a member of the Dallas County North Texas Auto | ||
| Task Force, a regional task force that serves several North Texas | ||
| counties; in addition to writing grants and coordinating funds | ||
| for the task force, he has played a vital role in bait and covert | ||
| operations, and he has been indispensable as a liaison and | ||
| oversight officer for regional law enforcement partners; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Sergeant Tolbert has manifested uncommon talent | ||
| in managing the complex responsibilities of a law enforcement | ||
| officer; he has led by example and has been a trusted mentor to | ||
| many, and his presence at the Dallas County Sheriff's Department | ||
| will be greatly missed; now, therefore, be it | ||
| RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 86th | ||
| Legislature, hereby commend Senior Sergeant Mickey Spillane | ||
| Tolbert on his outstanding career with the Dallas County | ||
| Sheriff's Department and his many contributions to the North | ||
| Texas communities and extend to him best wishes for the future; | ||
| and, be it further | ||
| RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for | ||
| him as an expression of esteem from the Texas Senate. | ||
