Sheriff Bryant “Wally” Jones said employees deserve care and support comparable to what they provide the community. “My employees work hard every day serving our citizens. They deserve the same care, attention, and support that they give to others.”

The Sheriff’s Office thanked Pike National Bank, First Bank, Summit Express Pharmacy, Serenity Psychiatric Outpatient and Southwest Mississippi Regional Medical Center for their support.
