To the Editor:

We are very fortunate to have a young sheriff in our community. Doug Timmons is an asset to our community for law enforcement. He knows the needs of the people here. He is honest, dependable and has Hamilton County’s interests at heart. We enjoy his exposure in the community. He came to my rescue last January when I had an accident involving a tree. He guided the helicopter right to our house and to the hospital in Des Moines. His timing with lights and sirens were particularly impressive.

I would have to say I think we are very fortunate to have Doug Timmons expertise to serve our community. I encourage you to join me in re-electing Doug Timmons for Hamilton County Sheriff.
