                                 ______
                                 

                         HON. JOHN R. MOOLENAAR

                              of michigan

                    in the house of representatives

                       Thursday, December 8, 2016

  Mr. MOOLENAAR. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to Tom 
McIntyre, upon his retirement as the Director of Saginaw County 911 and 
for his many contributions to the Saginaw community.
  Originally aspiring to be a teacher, Mr. McIntyre first began his 
work in law enforcement as a school liaison police officer in the 
village of Chesaning. From there Mr. McIntyre worked at the Saginaw 
Sheriff's Department holding a variety of positions including working 
in the juvenile division, serving as sergeant in charge of the marine 
division, jail administrator and directing the road patrol. In 1993 he 
was elected by the community to serve as sheriff, holding this position 
until 1998. Mr. McIntyre has since spent the last 18 years in his 
current position, as Director of Saginaw County 911. Those in the 
community still know him as the sheriff.
  With a total of almost 50 years of service, Mr. McIntyre has 
demonstrated a devotion to the public safety of Saginaw County. Through 
his illustrious career at the Saginaw Sheriff's Department, Saginaw 
County 911, and as a community leader, Mr. McIntyre has positively 
influenced the lives of the countless community members he has 
selflessly served.
  On behalf of the Fourth Congressional District of Michigan, I am 
honored today to extend my gratitude to Tom McIntyre for his many years 
of hard work and service to Saginaw County, and wish him a happy and 
healthful retirement.
