After 37 years of service, Retired Sheriff Landers completed his last day with our office and had his final radio call this afternoon. Throughout his career, Retired Sheriff Landers held many positions including Records Clerk, Corrections Deputy, Patrol Deputy, Patrol Sergeant, Administrative Lieutenant, and became Sheriff in 2016. These assignments gave him experience with community policing, allowed him to work closely with community members, and required creative thinking to find solutions for new challenges law enforcement faces each day. Although his eyes were not originally set on becoming Sheriff, his contributions, leadership, and integrity made him an obvious candidate. It is impossible to highlight all his accomplishments over almost 4 decades of service, and Retired Sheriff Landers will tell you that his accomplishments couldn’t be done alone. Landers shares and attributes his success to his incredible and supporting wife, Jen. He is also quick to give credit to, and prioritize, his team. “It’s not about myself, it’s about our team. You always want to leave an organization better than when you found it and hope the next person does the same.” Thank you, Retired Sheriff Landers for 37 years of service, leadership, and positive impacts to our communities.Photos from Lincoln County Sheriff's Office - Oregon's post
