2022 SHERIFF’S COMMENDATION AWARD 

Dep. Luke Wible

The recipient is selected from the division winners, in recognition of outstanding policing or investigatory ability, consistent high levels of commitment and professionalism, or where the individual’s actions are far beyond what would normally be expected.

This year’s Commendation Award is in memory of Sheriff Maynard Reid. 

Sheriff Reid was a U.S. Marine who served in Vietnam, receiving a Purple Heart for being wounded in combat. He served as a law enforcement officer for both the Asheboro Police Department and the Randolph County Sheriff’s Office for nearly 40 years. 

Reid served as Randolph County’s Sheriff from 2006 until his unexpected death on Jan. 5, 2016.
