Webster Parish Deputy Sheriff Lt. Claude Reeves has received one more accolade celebrating his recent retirement, and this one comes from the nation’s capitol.

Speaker of the U.S. House, Rep. Mike Johnson of Louisiana, signed a Certificate of Congressional Recognition for Reeves… “In appreciation of eighteen years of faithful service to the community of Webster Parish through the Webster Parish Sheriff’s Office.”

Presenting the certificate to Reeves was Kathy Baber, who represents the north Louisiana area for Speaker Johnson.

Although Reeves officially retired from his full time duties as Chief Bailiff of the 26th Judicial Court, he remains in service as a reserve deputy for Sheriff Jason Parker’s department.
