Deputy to be memorialized
TCSD honors David Atkins
A member of the Tehama County Sheriff's Department (TCSD) who passed away last year will soon be memorialized in front of the building where he served.
Deputy David Atkins died April 30, 2007.
Atkins raised and lowered the flag at the TCSD for many years, and as a fitting tribute, a plaque honoring his memory will be placed on the flagpole at the front of the building.
The Tehama County Deputy Sheriff's Association is paying all expenses for the acquisition and placement of the plaque, which will read, "In Memory of Our Friend and Colleague Deputy David Atkins, July 2, 1954-April 30, 2007, Who Faithfully Served Our Community."
The Tehama County Board of Supervisors unanimously approved the plans and specifications during its Tuesday meeting.
