The Eastland County Sheriff’s Depart. recognized Deputy Sgt Windell Light recently for 30 years of service with the Of “Thirty years. That means he was doing this job before some of our deputies were even born… and back when reports were probably written with a pen that had to be chained to the desk.

Over the years, he’s done just about everything— patrol, bailiff, civil process—you done it… and probably has a story about how it used to be done “back in the day.” There’s a good chance if you have a question, he’s either got the answer or remembers when we tried it the last time.

With 30 years of experience comes a level of knowledge you just can’t replace. He’s forgotten more about this job than most of us will ever know—and somehow still remembers where everything is and how it works.
