Sergeant Thomas W. Harrison said good bye to the Emery County Sheriff’s Office on Friday, April 15 after diligently serving the citizens of Emery County for 31 years.

Harrison began his career in law enforcement in 1985 working as a jailer at ECSO. In 1986, he advanced to Patrol Deputy and also worked as an EMT. Harrison worked as a Detective from 1989 to 1996, and as a Patrol Sergeant and Administrative Sergeant from 1996 to present.

Harrison was one of the most highly skilled, hardworking personnel at ECSO. He was a member of the Carbon Emery Drug Task Force and gave numerous drug presentations throughout Emery County and surrounding areas. He also served in a supervisory position on the Drug Task Force.

Harrison was a HazMat and Rope Rescue Technician and was highly skilled in both of those areas. He served as Commander of the Sheriff’s Emergency Response Team (SERT) where he helped organize and execute lockdown drills and active shooter drills at local schools.

During his time as an Administrative Sergeant, Harrison was also involved in emergency management. Harrison’s retirement will leave a huge void at the ECSO. His years of experience, his knowledge and skills, and his genuine concern for the citizens of Emery County will be missed.

Members of the community who see Harrison out and about are urged to thank him for his many years of service and congratulate him on his retirement.
