After 15 years of service to the residents of the parish, Kevin McLain has retired as Chief Civil Deputy of the Webster Parish Sheriff’s Office.

McLain was honored with a retirement reception recently and friends and coworkers gathered at the Sheriff’s Office headquarters to send him off.

“I’ve never worked with a greater group of people. All of you have made my job easier over these years, and I want to sincerely thank all of you,” McLain said.

“I always knew we could count on Kevin to get the job done,” Sheriff Jason Parker said while presenting McLain with a retirement appreciation plaque. “We certainly wish him well, and we hope he won’t be a stranger. Come back and see us anytime.”
